So now I am trying to figure out what to do from an accessory standpoint. Currently I am using the iCOM which I mainly use with my cell phone as a bluetooth and as an audio headphone to connect through cable to the computer, iPOD, and TV. I do not have FM yet but I am asking for this capability now to try out. I was wondering if anyone out here can tell me how well the current smartlink works as compared to the zoomlink or easy link. My audiologist is telling me to go with the zoomlink and iCOM because it is so much easier to use the iCOM for bluetooth devices since it is more automatic. Also she says that the smartlink has no remote control over the naida IX aid. So if anyone has any experiences with these devices I would greatly appreciate any advice you could give me.
Thank-you in advance
I am using the Smartlink SX with 2 ML10i FM receivers. I seem to have good use for my Smartlink with the cell phone, but have a few issues trying to set it up as a headphone accessory with my PDA, as I would like to use it as a MP3 player too.
The newest Smartlink, the Smartlink+, has newer bluetooth technology (version2.0) and pairs a lot better that the older Smartlink. (wish I had it) It is supposed to be able to set up to MP3 players and other stereo profile devices.

The pros I like on Smartlink+ versus iCom is the portability. The cons is the cost, which is about $2500+ versus about $300 for the iCom. If you need to have FM for use in meetings, classrooms, etc., then I would use the Smartlink+ for everyday use...
Hope this helps!!
