Both are small units with built in mic and 3.5mm headphone socket, and have buttons to control media playback via AVRCP. I think the Motorola has an LCD too, for display of track info and caller id. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

amazon recently lists a surprising number of them.
when i tried to buy such a thing a few months ago, it was hard work, to
find one -- finally i got the sonyericson hbh-ds 220.
so far nice, but has a very small mind -- it can't remeber more than one
device it was paired to, which is considered the comparativley high price
then, ridiculous.
finally tired of that linitation i recently got the "suvil clipfree mobile
bt", much cheaper, remembers at least three devices, though with issues --
with my netbook (eeepc) with pulseaudio music is choppy and needs
hciconfig hci0 lm master; hciconfig hci0 lp hold,sniff,park
to be ... uhm ... less choppy. with my thinkpad and that command it's
rather ok, but far below the claimed range of 10m.
due to the hassle to use a bt headset with the freerunner so far (with
fso, i tested a cheap jawbone -- but fso did not switch back to
gsmhandset.state when no headset was available, bt still does not survive
suspend/resume, all in all, bt is not suitable for daily use) i did
refrain from testing both of these headset, but i'd expect at least the
sonyericsson to work.
for plain alsa, ie audio output, i don't really expect difficulties.
i created the .asoundrc with
pcm.bluetooth {
type bluetooth
device XX:XX:... #headset's mac here
profile "auto"
}
ctl.bluetoothsu {
type bluetooth
device XX:XX:... #headset's mac here
profile "auto"
}
following those arcane ritual texts of the bluez worshippers and tried the
prayer
arecord -D bluetooth -f S16_LE | aplay -D bluetooth -f S16_LE
which surely was not answered (did not hear myself like i did on my
thinkpad), but no error appeared neither.
thus, probably only a correct state file is necessary.
since i am still don't understand the state file lingo (and still am
surprised to see, that the names of the controls in alsamixer do not match
the names listed in the state file), i am incapable to write such a sacred
text myself and humbly hope one of the priests of the bluez and alsa
church will do that ...
ps: for those with write access to the wiki:
i got a very cheap (got it as a gift from some shop) jawbone called PBH-8W
working once. due to the problems mentioned above i did not really try
again.

I can charge it via USB from a computer, but the computer doesn't even seem aware that it's connected. Nothing interesting in dmesg or lsusb. Maybe it can be used for audio input, but if so, I think you'd have to pull it out of stealth mode.

Does headset with jackout exist as well, would be cool to have a jack out on the headset for connecting to a HiFi Stereo... :) -f- On Fri, Jul 31, 2009 at 4:51 PM, Dan Staley wrote: > Yes, definitely a good idea.

Re: List of bluetooth headsets
Yes, definitely a good idea. With all the recent interest in bluetooth headsets, I think keeping the list of headsets in one place is a good step. I updated the entry on my lubix NC1 on your new page. I no longer have to stop and start a song via intonenot sure what fixed it. Works great now, and looks cool. I'll test out GSM sometime this weekend. -Dan On Fri, Jul 31, 2009 at 10:31 AM, KaZeR wrote: > > > > Evgeniy Ginzburg wrote: > > > > Dear all. > > > > I've noticed that information about bluetooth headsets mono cum stereo > > is spreaded over some different pages in OM wiki. > > > > So I've collected all data I know to one [1] page & made it look > > "prettier". > > Please review this page and add all relevant to your opinion information > > to it. > > > > I propose to delete data about working/nonworking headsets from pages > > [2] [3] and link them to sections of the list. > > > > > > I think that's a good idea. > > -- > View this message in context: > http://n2.nabble.com/List-of-bluetooth-headsets-tp3362922p3362951.html > Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ___ > Openmoko community mailing list > community@lists.openmoko.org > http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community > ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
