Works as advertised
We now have 2 of these as in CA you need this or one of those things that looks like a large tumor on your ear. We have used it around the house as a speakerphone and, of course, in the car. So far no one is able to tell we are using the Jabra if we don't tell them. The sound quality...excellant. Tip: Get the $10-11 charger Amazon offers. A lot of cars will not activate the cigerette lighter unless the car is running. Unless you have a 2 hour trip planned to charge it (you can't use it until fully charged the first time)at $4 plus for petro this would be a bargain.

Does what I need, but a little tricky to learn
I have been using the Jabra for about 3 months, in anticipation of the California hands-free law. While I like the slim, sleek design, I would prefer a couple of big buttons instead of the single one. It took me a while to learn the difference between the "press" and the "tap", so I was transferring calls to the handset when I meant to hang up. And I never did get the right pressure for answering. I rigged my phone to have the Jabra answer automatically after two rings -- MUCH better and much safer!
The volume is just loud enough with my Samsung phone jacked up to high - I just have to remember to lower the phone volume when I do hand-hold it, or everyone around me hears my caller's voice.
I agree that the battery life is amazing. (I got mine at Costco, and the AC adapter was included.) I like the auto-off feature, as I usually forget to turn it off when I leave the car. I prefer using the visor speakerphone over a headset -- no geek factor, and I have the use of both ears to hear the stereo or conversation in my car, which I don't have when a headset blocks one ear.
The indicator lights could be brighter; in the daytime, they are too small and too dim to be useful. For this level of function, the price is right, though.

Looks Good Performs Bad
I recieved my Jabra Yesterday, tried about three calls on it. If you drive on the highway don't buy this Item. The volume is very low, and I jacked up the phone volume to the max. I have other bluetooth Items that work very well with my phone, on this the volume is just too low.

I would actually give it a 3.5.
I read all of the reviews before purchasing this product, so I knew what I was getting. The unit is very easy to set-up and use. After charging up the batteries, you just stick it onto your visor and turn it on. On a side note, it would be good if Jabra offered a wall outlet charger along with the car charger.
My two biggest complaints is that at highway speeds, it is very difficult to hear the person you are talking to, even though the other party hears you just fine. I always have to make sure that the radio is completely off and the air conditioner is on its lowest setting. I heard through the grapevine that Jabra may be offering an updated version with a better speaker toward the end of this summer. Hey Jabra, if you're reading this, maybe you can offer discounts to your customers that have the current version to upgrade to the newer one.
Also, the unit allows you to reduce the itensity of the indicator lights for night driving. No need to as you can barely see the lights at night and you can't see them at all during day time driving.
Besides its shortcomngs, I like this unit because it is small and easy to use. If a better unit is coming in the future, I would definitely wait for that one.

Obeying the law
With this speakerphone I can now follow the rule that is set to take effect in CA on 1 July. Very easy to use, set up was a breeze. Wish that it was easier to hear the ringing sound when you call someone while the car is in motion - the road noise drowned out the ringing. But it was more than loud enough having a conversation while driving. Friends have told me that my voice sounded somewhat tinny, but nothing different from most any other hands free device. They did say they could hear me clearly enough and that they couldn't hear the road noise I was hearing in my car. Very good item, wish it came with a home charger instead of just a car charger, hence only a 4 star rating from me.
