DO NOT BUY THIS POS!!!!

If it's around any other bluetooth devices it will immediately drop sound. It also constantly loses sync just walking around with my iPhone.

Oh and it refuses to synch with any Mac running OSX 10.6 and on 10.5.7 it was dropping constantly even when I'm 5 feet away with a fully charged battery and all other bluetooth devices off.

HORRIBLE POS!!! DO NOT BUY!!!!

I think apple is missing some code in order for the S9s to work. At startup everything worked minus the back and forward button.But after a week of use, now the volume does’t work nor the pause button. Maybe motorola will fix the problem since they stand to make a profit out of all those iphone out there.

I upgraded From Motorola S9 to S9-HD , Both Next/Previous Track buttons dont work, But everything else dose. i sure hope some one will release something for Jailbroken Iphones to add Additional Bluetooth support for these function to become available

Other then the Next Track Button, S9-HD sounds Amazing, and was well worth the money

I have the S9 and once I updated to 3.0 it paired and worked fine, all except for the forward and back buttons as others have mentioned. However, now I cannot get the handsfree volume or play/pause buttons to work. This started happening intermittently and then when I recharged and unpaired and re-paired it would wortk again (all except for the forward and backward of course).

One time also, strangely, when pairing an additional configuration option came up on the iphone asking about handsfree mode and asking for a PIN. I input the standard 0000 and it said invalid PIN and nothing seemed to happen. I have never seen this additional hands free configuration option again. and I am stuck now without the ability to start and stop thje muisic or change the volume. I can answer calls hands free though.

Weird. I have shut the phone off an on, tried doing it while paired, while not paired, etc. Nothing seems to work. Maybe I shoudl go back and do some sort of hard reset on the phone and reload or something.

Just got a pair of S9's to pair with my Iphone 3GS. They do work great indoors but the moment I headed out onto the streets for a run I got constant drop outs. I tried turning off Wi-Fi and 3G hoping this might reduce the problem somehow but alas no.

If I held the phone directly next to the headphones then I didn't get any drop-out but, as you can imagine this is not a position best suited for running.

I guess if I was on a treadmill inside I might not have this problem but jogging around the local park is a complete no go in them.

Hey, I’ve heard that Audio Skips when running.. is it true? what if you placed your iphone on the treadmill while running? will it still skip? or is it because of the Device that the audio skips
