I have had my 8260 since ATT started selling them and have hated the Nokia earbud ever since. No one had a compatible headset until I found the Jabra EarBoom and now I am a happy camper. It's comfortable, it works (REALLY !) and has been reliable. If I have to give it a ding for anything it would be the cable. It's a bit stiff - oh well - IT happens and no one is perfect. Bottom line - if you have a Nokia 82xx - get a Jabra
