Part of the issue with Bluetooth in general is that there is a lag when using Bluetooth headsets using A2DP. I'm not saying this is a BookSense issue, instead it is a Bluetooth issue. For example, if I take my Bluetooth headset and connect it to my PC, I see the same delay. Part of this is due that using stereo Bluetooth pushes through more data, and that the throughput is not all that fast with Bluetooth 2.0. Also, Bluetooth tends to travel in "bursts" rather than a steady stream. So, if you pause something, it is likely you will experience a delay. If you have used a headset with a cell phone, they typically use the Hands-Free Protocol (HFP), which is not A2DP, so you don't experience the same issues as this because it doesn't send as much data, and subsequently does not have great audio either. I'm hoping that when Bluetooth 3.0 becomes the standard in the future in the technology field that this issue will be resolved, but who knows for sure. I just think it's important to know that Bluetooth provides some limitations that just can't be fixed using Bluetooth 2.0 with the A2DP protocol.

I think it may have something to do with the battery levels of the Booksense and the headset. When the battery is fully charged, or even mostly charged, things work all right. If it's really related to battery strengths, I'm wondering how much can actually be done. However, if something can, go for it.
