Default Mobile 'phone query

Wanting to fit a hands free 'phone kit into my 06 S60, but need it to be transferable from car to car, so not permanent fixture, am thinking "Parrot mini kit slim" or "Motorola", has anyone any experience with these kits?

I friend of mine has the parrot mini, and swears by it. Wires in to the stereo and is easy to use and gives good quality sound and speach is very clear.

I use a visor mounted battery powered Motorola T215; no wires trailing, charge with in vehicle charger or mini USB from the PC. Up to 36 hrs on one charge (they claim). Average sound quality and you have to turn the radio off yourself but hey, its cheap and transportable.

Halfords are quite expensive, I got a parrot slimline from a mobile accesory store online and saved about £15. The sound quality is good and you can have it paired with up to 4 phones.

Called in Halfords this morning, bought some car shampoo and forgot all about the 'phone kits!!! never mind, been told that Orange have the minikit slim on sale for about £40, going now to have a look, if not, I'll be going on Ebay, being able to use more than one 'phone should be handy.
Thanks guys
