 A $50 Paperweight Feb 01, 2007
By H. Fisch
This product doesn't work. I have a R.E.D. Tantrum Audio Helmet that supports A2DP. The concept is that you can wear a helmet while skiing or snowboarding and be able to listen to music and make and receive phone calls through the included Motorola bluetooth headphones. This system only works to its full potential if everything, including the music, streams through bluetooth. So, I searched for an iPod bluetooth adaptor and after some research stumbled on the Jabra A125s. Long story short, it's unusable. The sound cuts in and out (usually out) constantly such that it's not even worth pairing to the headphones. I know the culprit is the Jabra because tests other bluetooth solutions work perfectly.
After giving up in frustration, I attempted to contact Jabra and see if this is a common problem with this device, or if I had a faulty unit. I've sent three emails and one letter but have heard NOTHING back from Jabra.
Stear clear of this product.

Usless.... almost Feb 25, 2007
By R. Marco
My recommendation is don't buy it it has a very limited range of application. The connection is frequently lost unless you are totally motionless. Don't even think going jogging with it, even if you are only walking and have the iPod in your back pocket this thing moves, gets loose and the connection is lost. Seldom seen such a bad connection plugging system, the device just hangs in there totally loose. Don't they field test these thing at Jabra? Bad design is my verdict. One star is my vote.

A few flaws on a potentially great product Jan 18, 2007
By J. Metts
I have the BT620S headphones along with the A125S adapter and they work great together! I have no problem syncing the 2 and listening to my iPod music, but the A125s has a couple of nasty issues. First, the device falls out of the iPod very easily. There are no clasping hooks like some other docking devices have, so I have had to rig my own method using Velcro to keep it attached to the iPod. Second, I primarily use this in my office at work, but cannot do so if the battery runs out. I initially figured I could plug it in and still listen while it charged, but I could not. I even had a little hope that charging the device while connected to my iPod would possibly charge the iPod as well, but no. Outside of these 2 frustrations, it works wonderfully syncing and playing my music.

 Great Ipod adapter for with BT620 Sep 25, 2007
By Tom
The Jabra A125s is the only adapter that I can find that promises decent integration with the IPod. I was not disappointed. This adapter was designed specifically for the BT620 headset which I already own. The two devices work together very well except for the initial "pairing" pain. The device's range is about 10-15 feet in open area in my house.
The documentation is not the best but good enough to guide you through the pairing process. I found that After the initial pairing, subsequence connection can be hit or miss. Sometime, I have to hold the "answer" button on the BT620 a few seconds to make it connect. Sometime, I have to hit the play button to connect. After a few tries, the two device pair consistently afterward.
Here is the sequence that works consistently for me:
- wake the Ipod by touching the click wheel.
- plug the adapter into the Ipod.
- power on the BT620 by pressing the "Answer" button. The left ear light will give off short flash blue every second.
- press the adapter "multifunction" button to turn it on. It will flash rapidly in blue.
- within a few seconds, the adapter light will flash slowly and long in blue and the Ipod should be playing and sound should stream out of the head phone.

 Making Ipod bluetooth compatiable Oct 25, 2007
By David Rader
"Hearing Aid Guy"
I wear the new Oticon EPOQ hearing aids with a streamer. before I purchased the Jabra, I had to physically connect a cable between the Oticon Streamer and the Ipod. Now the interface between my Ipod and hearing aids is completely wireless. For those that haven't investigated Oticon EPOQ hearing aids, I would urge you to. Instead of being hearing impaired, those of us that wear hearing aids become hearing empowered!
