Nokia BH-905. Lots of skipping and glitching. The worst part is either the bluetooth stack or gstreamer tries to "catch up" by playing slightly faster, which makes the pitch go all wacky, which is even more annoying than the glitching itself.
I've reduced it slightly by disconnecting from IM services, and reducing the frequency of email checks. But ANY background activity causes glitching, receiving an SMS for instance.
<rant>I can't believe that anything involving audio doesn't have "realtime" priority. I don't care if my SMS is 3 seconds late as long as my audio doesn't skip. </rant>
Could users that had problems with BT headset in the earlier fw please inform if the problems are gone or still there? I'm thinking about buying a Nokia BT headset, but if they don't work properly yet then I'll wait some more updates...

And yes, I voted for the bug.
Wow, the pitch/sped up playback problem is exactly what my BT3030 is doing. It doesn't seem to do it quite as often after the firmware update (by that I mean I can sometimes get through a whole track without it doing it, so still too frequent), but its still doing it.
Other than that, when its not playing up, I find the sound quality is a lot better than I expected considering all my music is FLAC so I expected a huge tradeoff using a bluetooth headset.
No help from the update whatsoever. I haven't had problems with audio quality but disconnecting. The connection between the headset and N900 won't last for long. Usually within 30 minutes the headset shows disconnection but the phone thinks it's still connected. Bluetooth is useless for me because of this...
Headset is Nokia BH-804.
Until the fix this, it's useless to me as well. I knew we were in trouble when they had to cancel the Free Bluetooth headset Promo because THEIR headset wouldn't work.
