I've been able to get it working with some diffent software. Once you have the devices paired and a headset profile available (the XTNDconnect software didn't have much in the way of bluetooth profiles available - but the widcomm software has loads - including the headset profile) you should see a bluetooth audio option in your multimedia settings in the control pannel (the drop downs for prefered audio devices) select bluetooth audio for audio in and out, apply that. Then connect to the headset. When I did this I didn't hear much except a few bleeps in the headset. Just press the button on the headset as well to connect and hey presto - iTunes on my headset! This works perfectly with xlite to make and receive calls.

Hope this helps!

If you plan to go this route don't buy a bluetooth adaptor that uses the XTNDconntect software. I've never been able to get it to work properly and there are no updates since last year (from the hardware vendor at least). Its an Innovision Wavelinker USB bluetooth module. I can discover and pair the headset, but thats it... nothing... Have ordered a new bluetooth dongle - so will try that and see what happens.

Basically, you should just be able to pair the headset and then select it as an audio device in the multimedia settings in control panel (in windows) - when you disconnect the machine should revert back to the default hardware for audio playback.

How about using a bluetooth headset? You would just need a bluetooth dongle for the laptop to provide the wireless connection for the headset...

(i'm in the process of trying this with an old usb bluetooth dongle (trying to find a suitable driver and manufacturers appears to have disapeared) and a cheap headset - i'll let you know how I get on.)

I'm currently using a Logitech headset which works well (except the echo it generates toward the other caller when I turn up the gains too high),
but it just doesn't carry well - in fact, I can't carry it in my laptop
case any more just becuase it doesn't fit and it was getting very beat up. I'd like to find something which folds up and is designed for travel. It
has to be USB sicne I don't have a MIC in (just line) on my laptop.

Any ideas?
