this is a bluetooth device and thus requires drivers, it will not function before the operating system loads. the included usb adapter requires a usb port or a port on a connected hub. check your operating system for compatible driver availability. short answer is "it depends on your OS."

There's a USB port on one of the ear buds. You connect it to your computer.

please post a review! I'm debating on whether to get this, not sure if it's the same as a regular old bluetooth adapter (which is much cheaper) and can't seem to find any information about it.

I recommend this if you would like to connect the headset to USB: SYBA external USB Stereo Sound Adapter for Windows, Mac, Linux Extra Audio Source with Microphone SD-CM-UAUD

The adapter sends audio signals from your PC to a Bluetooth enabled device. The device should work with a Bluetooth ear transciever, but will not work with a non-Bluetooth headset or speaker phone.

Hi Jane,The USB option is really meant for computer-to-device communication. You could use the output jack, which is used for headphones for your car, and maybe buy an adapter for it.

Use the headset while using your computer. Plug the USB receiver into your computer/laptop, then use the headset for Skype, listening to music or audio books, or video/audio chats with family and friends. I use it for teaching online computer courses, Skype calls to family, listening to music, and conference calls. I also have the first Voyager sold, the Voyager Pro, and the Voyager Legend. The Legend I use most of the time but I do use this one while traveling.

Every Bluetooth headset and/or speaker I have tried to sync with has worked great. With my laptop, there was one time I had to turn off the speaker driver and make the headset the "primary" speaker. Otherwise, it works great and can't beat the price. Hope that helps and enjoy.

on my computer a popup from the computer appears which says something about not being able to connect bluetooth devices.... I have no other experience than that to report.

Would love to have this know the answer to this as well. In the interim, I bought one of those toshiba usb adapters http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&source;=hp&q;=usb+bluetooth+adapter+toshiba&oq;=&gs;_rfai=&um;=1&ie;=UTF-8&cid;=10279719605232388935&ei;=mpCnS4jFEZOgswPCleXZAw&sa;=X&oi;=product_catalog_result&ct;=result&resnum;=3&ved;=0CBoQ8wIwAg#ps-sellers

You could use your bluetooth headset with your computer with the "OBiON PC" application to connect to your obi device through your computer. However, I have found this to be relatively cumbersome, and think you would do better to have an actual hardware phone connected to the obi device (that supports bluetooth), and then pair your headset with the hardware phone.

Not sure why everyone keeps saying that it doesnt take up a port. Most desktop computers still dont come with bluetooth built in and many laptops dont either, for those computers you will need a bluetooth dongle. if you happen to have bluetooth on your computer then no it will not need a usb port.

No it does not connect directly via usb, however, the adapter shown interfaces with the computer via usb and proprietary software which is provided with the product and, the headset connects to the adapter via tradition audio connection.

In my experience using this device, there is no need to do anything more than plug it in a USB port, plug the headset and/or microphone in, and hear sound. I have had to use no other settings except volume controls. I have found that it is automatically recognized as the sound port.

Hi, this Bluetooth USB adapter adds PC connectivity to your existing Plantronics Bluetooth headset. Small enough to keep in the PC for always-ready connectivity.
