Bluetooth Question

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

      So, as you may or may not know, I just got a free Treo 700wx from
Sprint through a killer ebay deal. Well, the phone trocks. Windows
Mobile 5, nice camera, Qwerty, bluetooth....great. 

   Except....The bluetooth is a bit hamstrung. See, it is v1.2 but it
isn't A2DP compatible. Sucks because I got some nice Motorola bluetooth
stereo headphones and I can't use them to listen to music, only voice.

   I've gathered that I may be able to buy an adapter, something like this,
and circumvent this little annoyance and be able to use the nifty
headphones, at the expense of an extra bit of bulk on a somewhat bulky
phone. 

  My question to all you smart folks out there is, am I right? Also,
are there any other options out there? I spent a couple of days looking
for hacks but, so far, no one has been able to do it, even though the
750v has a2dp and it seems like they could move some reg files over and
make it work. I know I could just use some wired headphones, but I
haven't really found any really nice ones that spark my fancy, plus I'm
a bluetooth fiend....Any help?
