The BT800 is a BIG wast of money! I bought it and it kept falling out of my ear. Its way to heavy on the front display end and will always fall out. You will also not be able to use all of its features if your using a blue tooth adapter. Just lets u use the basics.

There are much better phones than the 6230. The screen is tiny and low resolution. The multimedia funtions dont have advanced options like some other phones. The keypad makes loud clicks. You should spend a little more money and get something like an SMT5600 which has a way bigger screen and does more.

The BT800 is OK. Works with my 6230, but the delay when answering with the 6230 through the bt800 is alot longer than with other phones ive used it with. Call quility will be limited by the bluetooth 1.1 on the 6230. Wont sound as good as talking on the phone itself for that and other reasons (like microphone position).
