Too many bugs considering it's $100

What's great about it: Superior functionality and clarity
What's not so great: Random disconnects, clunky voice recognition
I bought this to replace my Plantronics Pro, which I dropped into Puget Sound. Got the next better model, the legend.
Pros: Great sound quality (better than using the handset), smart sensors tell the phone when it is not on your ear, better battery life, fast connecting, great BT range.
Cons: My old Plantronics NEVER disconnected using the same two smartphones. This one randomly disconnects during calls, sometimes more than once in a call, forcing me to pick up the phone. Not good when you're driving, eh? I wear it normally tight on my ear, but I think the smart sensors which tell it when its off-ear are false positive-ing. (I made that word up, so it's mine.) For $100 bucks, that is not acceptable. I'm pretty sure you can turn of the smart sensor function, but cannot confirm that yet.
Also, this model adds the ability to answer the call by just saying "answer". I have found, however, that you must wait like 10 seconds before this is effective. IE, you have to wait for it to get done saying "call from John Doe, answer or ignore?" before it listens for you to say answer or ignore. Given the few seconds the phone has actually been ringing on the originator's phone before your phone rings, that translates to the caller having you answer on like ring 6 or 7... I tested it. If you're not quick enough it goes to voicemail. That could be improved... or just use the answer button.

I may be taking this one back, jury is out.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

legend pro stop working
my head set stop working all of a sudden what could be the problem.
This could be caused by a non-granular discontinuity in the local space-time continuum. Please make at least one jump to hyperspace and see if that fixes it.

will the 87001 tell you the phone number for incoming calls
No. Just the contact's name as you have it in the phone. Otherwise, it says "unknown caller".

What about the radiation factor? is the head set made out of plasctic so it does not produce radiation to the brain?
This headset has a radiation factor of 147.6. I've been using it a while and I've never seen any ill effects yet but som4ttimeskmfm 09bvgjri osvns089rtjoj&&*gug jgweo njsdfks s09f8gnm 8vs!!
