Nice Voice Control feature. BAD non-removable presets.
While the Voice Control features work well, BlueAnt sadly chose to pre-populate the first five voice-activated speed dial positions with voicemail/home/office/favorite/GOOG-411... meaning you have to speak those very phrases to dial your first four calling favorites and the fifth GOOG-411 entry overrides your phone's fifth favorite and cannot be changed. This setup meshes poorly with the new iPhone 3G.
The decision to configure the V1 presets this way seems like a marketing choice and not a very well thought out one at that. Simply configuring Speed Dial 1, Speed Dial 2, Speed Dial 3, etc, would have been far more functional and adaptable for most users.

V1 and Messages with Samsung Instinct
The V1 is stating "Call Terminated" whenever I receive a text, picture message or email.
This is only happening with my new Sprint Instinct. I have a ticket in with BlueAnt Support and Sprint about this issue as it is extremely annoying.
