If not there will be soon. Apple seems to be taking an interest in bluetooth headphones (they just bought a company specializing in that).

Apple did not buy the company. They just hired one of the cofounders as a Bluetooth Engineer.

There are hundreds, including every phone headset out there, along with a bunch of stereo headphone/microphone setups, like Motorola ROKR. There is nothing unique about how FaceTime uses Bluetooth.

Any bluetooth headset that will work with a phone will work with your Mac. Mind you, there are a few apps that don't like to play nice with bluetooth headsets (like the VOIP app I use), but in most situations, you just need to go into system preferences to set the headset as the mic you want to use.

Do you know by any chance if Skype and facetime play nice with bluetooth headsets?
