Never, because Apple decided to hold out on some of the new BT features for the 2G, even though it's technically perfectly capable of AD2P. :(

Every day, mostly for audio podcast and audio book listening while walking. I am disappointed, however, with the drop outs. Some days it works perfectly, other days it drops out far too much. I have used two different headphones, tried turning off wi-fi, and generally get the same results. Indoors is usually better than outdoors, but it drops in either case at some point.

It's a great technology, but it doesn't work as well as I would expect it to.

In a house...duh!
Just about every morning. I listen to tunes or podcasts while I walk the dog. A few other times for calls, but typically just to listen to tunes while walking or mowing the lawn.

That's funny because I just bought my first pair from Woot,com myself. They were only $20 so I figured, "What the heck?"

They're Lubix NC-1 and for the price they're great. My only complaints are
  1. The earbud is a touch large for my ears. I have to twist em a bit to get em to stay in, and I don't think they'd ever be good for running.
  2. Bass response is a bit week, but what do you expect for $20?

Now I hope the 3.1 update enables the track skip function as well.

3.1 does enable AVRCP, I do believe.

The earbuds are too large for me as well, (I purchased them too), but there is a solution someone on the woot forums gave -

I might get these if they improve it that much. :)

Quick question, does anyone else have issues with the Lubix NC-1 headset as far as attracting like a static like sound with some 'harder' rock music? Might be the same bass problem you're detecting, but my ears are sensitive and annoyed by it. lol

To the original question, I use A2DP everyday.

Everyday, could not wait for BT. I can't stand being tethered to a device. Once you go cordless its hard to go back.
