Anybody know if you can use a Motorola BT Headset (H700) as a BT headphone?? I thought it would be pretty cool, I've tried setting it up but it doesn't work.

Anybody know of any good BT headphones or if they even work very. Pros? Cons?

I was able to get my motorola bt headset to sync/pair with my Macbook. It only saw it as a bt headset, no headphone capability. Didn't have any use for it so I didn't bother to play around with it anyfurther though. Were you able to get it to a least sync?

Macs don't have the A2DP (I think) profile in Bluetooth which is the requirement for headphone support. It's not going to work.

You need to get a BT audio transmitter.

I purchased this Bluetooth Audio Transmitter and I could not be happier:


I can now listen to my iTunes library on my A2DP headset while I work out. The transmitter can also be used on any other 3.5mm line out jack (even though I haven't yet). The only drawback is that it doesn't allow for AVCRP control.
