Bluetooth earpeice with Skype or Gizmo?
 
Can you use a bluetooth earpiece, like you would a cell phone, with Skype or Gizmo? If so which one can I go grab at Best Buy that works well?

Anyone know the answer?

I'd like to know this too. I use my normal good-old-jabra headset for Skype on my laptops, and it works really well. If I could use it on my up-n-coming N800, that'd be really cool. :cool:

As yet the answer is no. However, there is hope that OS2008 will introduce better support for bluetooth headphones -- if anyone with a pre-release version could shed some light on this matter, it would be great.
However, there is a slightly hacky way of using stereo bluetooth headphones to listen to music (search for "A2DP" on these forums).

Really. I would have thought the two would be perfect together. Damn.

What is exactly the problem in getting it working? As I understand it, it is already possible to have a bluetooth headset work for the 'hearing' part, what is the difficulty in relaying 'speaking' as well?
