Question Bluetooth Hands Free: RECOS?

I came to my 2012 Fit Sport from a 2005 Honda Element. Really liked being able to plug my cell phone onto the AUX jack in the dash. Enabled me to speak handsfree really easily using the car speakers and the phone's mic.

I have never been able to get this to work in the Fit. Have tried a bunch of different volume settings on phone, car's HU, etc. and nothing seems to stop the echoing the person on the other end hears. Bummer. I am giving up.

Anyone using a specific Bluetooth hands-free speaker/mic unit they can recommend?

Looking for something that amongst other things, will auto off if connection from phone is gone for a longer period.

HERE is a review of some units out there right now

Just got my Jabra Tour (a refurb from Amazon Warehouse-$39) on a recommendation from someone here. It seems to work pretty well and will auto on/off as you enter/leave the car. You can also just turn it off by hand which is what I plan to do.

Seems to work pretty well on initial testing. I can report back more when I've had it for a week or two if you'd like.

I am using the Crux beeline series blue tooth unit in my 13 Sport. I had my audio video guys install it at work. Works great with my I phone and steering wheel controls. Not sure what retail is but I am very happy with it and it's plug and play.
