Maddiedog,

what ever became of your Avantree® HM100-A Waterproof MULTIPOINT Bluetooth HELMET report? I have a Scala Rider Q2 Multiset and I dropped my helmet and the FM radio went out on it. My wife doesn't use the radio on hers much. If she does I have to turn it on for her. I am considering buying a new Scala Rider set. They don't make the Q2 Multiset or Multiset Pro anymore, but I see a set on closeout for $164 right now. I'm almost tempted to spend $300 and buy two sets. Their original MSRP price was like $450 for a set. They are the top of the line units and have great noise cancelation etc... though I never travel any faster than 60mph.

A2DP is annoying to use with some devices. Otherwise that kit's okay. I don't use it much -- my wife doesn't ride with me often anymore.

A friend of mine has this: http://www.amazon.com/LG-Wireless-Bluet ... B0052YFYFK and it works really well. If I were to get another, I'd get one of those.
