I use the Cardo for Bluetooth and bike to bike with my Buddies, I think if you search cardo on the forum you will find enough info to speak for itself, check them out
I got the BlueAnt. Typical bluetooth setup/pairing (read "just show me the decoder ring"). Once we got it going on open-face helmets with a windshield, it was quite useless. I wanted to rip it off and throw it in front of an on-coming semi. I was good though. Returned it within the 30-day trial period. Whew!
I've heard excellent things about the Starcom1 and Autocom. I'm going to get Autocom when the new stuff comes out in the next month.
Terrie and I got the Nolan N-102 modular flip face when they first came out. They are wirless intercom with bluetooth.
Now that she's riding her own bike again (she had a Dyna a couple of years ago), it's worked out pretty well. We do our touring and carry on conversations just like we were in the car together.
When I'm riding without her, then I listen to my XM through my helmet. Still able to answer the phone, too.
Nobody ever knows I'm on my bike.......they just don't hear it at all, inside the flip face.
After a lot of research, we've decided not to go wireless. It seems as if there are some "decent" products on the market, but nothing that really compares to the sound quality and capability of the "wired" systems out there. We purchased the J&M system after trying it out on a 150 mile trip this past weekend. Thanks for all the input.
