Re: 1st impressions Plantronics m50 bluetooth
Double tapping to redial the last number seems to be common to many BT ear peaces. - Original Message - From: Lois Butterfield To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2013 3:27 AM Subject: RE: 1st impressions Plantronics m50 bluetooth Hi Tracey, Have you tried pressing and holding for a second to see if you get Siri?

Re: 1st impressions Plantronics m50 bluetooth
Well, something I've already learned is apparently it doesn't do well with siri. You can activate Siri but to end your interaction with Siri, you need to tap the phone. This is unfortunate, but I don't think it'll be a deal breaker for me. VoiceOver was my priority, comfort and price. I'll keep you posted.
