If not the edge then look for the voyager 5200 which is a step up in the product line.

The, Edge, is the name of the model to which I am referring. Know that this particular model is a single-ear device. Plantronics makes many models, some that are for use in both ears. As long as the device-description states that the device can connect to multiple devices, simultaneously, you should be good to go with any Plantronics Voyager model. Please let us know which one you purchase and how it works for you.
