I was almost positive that the blueant q1 worked with vo, but I wanted to be 
positive. I have the q2 and this was not an issue, so not we know, there is 
an upgrade and the q1 will be fine working with vo, but you just need to 
update the firm ware.  For some of you that have a bluetooth that is not 
reading but is supposed, I would recommend going to the manufactures web 
page and searching for a new firm ware update.  This might just fix your vo 
problem too.  Here is my source info for the blueant q1.
Hugs, Andrea M Breier

Remember: If you see someone without a smile today give them one of yours! 
Live simply. Love seriously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to 
God
