Ok, I updated the notes (which may be of interest to anyone who has received a previous copy from me, you may want to request a newer copy), and I've returned them along with the text version of the PDF user guide to 3 requesters so far.

I'm not sure you really need any carrying case, there aren't any parts/pieces which you need to keep together; the only wires are contained inside of the main body of the headset.

I just purchased one of these headsets. Question, do they come with a carrying case, or do they fold up? Also, stupid question, but can I have more than one thing hooked up via Bluetooth to my phone? My braille display and headphones? I know, I'm not that bright! LOL. Thanks.
