Conclusion

There are a lot of reasons to recommend the Nokia BH-601s. They look cool, are comfortable, and have well thought out, simple controls. The included Bluetooth adapter for computer use adds another layer of usefulness to the headsets. The sound is not quite up to par, both in headset mode and headphone mode, though some of that can be written off to the wireless connections and the lack of a boom microphone (always a trade off between quality and style I think). The lack of a case is irksome; however the biggest problem is cost. At their current price of 139.95, they are too expensive. The cost of a case (and you shouldn't get these without one) will simply add. However, the competition in Bluetooth headset/headphone combos is intense and I suspect the price will fall soon. If it does, and the features of this headset are what you're looking for, snap them up. Or, if you like them and aren't concerned about the price, then go right ahead.
