Hi Jim,
Thank you for your answer. I'm still confused though. :-)
The reason why I want to still use wired headphones when I work on computer is
that it is hard to find good and light wireless headphones.
So only for chatting on Skype the wireless and USB headphones may be OK, but
not for working the entire day.
>From what I read about the headphones you recommended, they are great for

>which is not really great.
But their main problem is that they are around the ear and very big and heavy
at 372g.
It is very hard to work all day with such headphones.

Bluetooth is definitely not the best way to handle this. Your best bet would
be to get a good wireless USB gaming headset. The charging station, will also
act, as a USB soundcard. Allowing you to send and receive audio wirelessly
between the headset and the computer. You will never need to be wired again.
Unless of course your headsets require recharging. They can recharge via USB
while you use them. I personally recommend the turtle beach elite 800. You can
use this headset both with your computer and any Bluetooth device you may wish
simultaneously. It even allows for multiple found sources. Hope that helps!

Hello,
My question is not exactly about using Skype or skype scripts, so sorry for
beeing a little off topic, but if someone have suggestions, they might be
useful for others also.
I am using the computer with wired headphones and it is OK for me, but when
I receive Skype calls that might be long enough, I would like to be able to
plug bluetooth headphones in computer and walk in my house while I'm talking.
So sometimes I would like to continue to use the wired headphones, and
sometimes to change to the bluetooth headphones.
Do you know if such a thing would be feasable?
I have never used bluetooth headphones until now and I am thinking that
doing this change of headphones might be complicated, that it might require
changing Skype's configuration to use a different microphone and a different
audio output each time I change the headphones.
I also understood that there are bluetooth adapters that have a 3.5 mm AUX
jack. I am thinking that if I'd just want to listen to music from computer with
bluetooth headphones, I would just need to plug an audio cable from that
bluetooth adapter to the computer's sound card and then connect the bluetooth
headphones to that adapter. This way, I'd continue to use the same sound card
and Skype should not be re-configured, and I would need just to plug a
different audio cable in the sound card, which would be much faster and easier.
The problem is that I don't need just to hear in the headphones, but also
to be able to speak in microphone, so the microphone should be also connected
through bluetooth somehow. It would be nice if there would be a bluetooth
adapter that would have 2 jacks, one for microphone and one for the headphones
instead of a single AUX jack, but I don't know if there is such a thing.
Do you know eventually if there is another way of changing rapidly from
wired to wireless headphones + microphone?
