Thanks. This is all good information to help us hard of hearing! I have two year old Phonaks(Audeo 70) BTE that did not have bluetooth capability which I wish they had since my hearing loss has gotten worse during this time. I am retired but participate on several different boards(meetings are tough to hear!)....I like to try different bells and whistles and am currently trying out the Phonak Compilot II which is basically a neck loop that converts bluetooth to T-coil and am somewhat happy with the set up....phone calls work well and playing music from phone eliminates earbuds/headphones for working out. You can also utilize for TV's but I have had limited success with that part of it. The unit is $300 bucks and will probably buy it. Going forward I think bluetooth or something similar will be the way to go. Keep up the conversations! I find them very helpful. Have a nice day!
