While I was hesitant after reading the rather drab review of the DOA unit, I caved in and bought one from (probably) the same Amazon seller. Mine came, I tried to turn it on, and it seemed DOA as well. A quick 10 minute charge then enabled the LEDs to start functioning. Seems when shipped with a totally dead battery, no indicators will work. Once that was out of the way, I charged it the full term (3 hours), and it paired with my LG enV first time out. Music sounds great. I still have to master answering phone calls while streaming music. Not sure if it's the headset or the phone, but it gets messy... Overall, does the job. For the price (sub $30 USD, plus shipping) it's a steal.
