Phone OS 4.0 A2DP Bluetooth - Changing Tracks

[roland.g]

Does the iOS 4.0 finally give us the ability to change tracks with a bluetooth headset or has Apple still not integrated that feature?

The GM doesn't support it, so I wouldn't expect it before 5.0, if even then. Apple has been particularly bullheaded about AVRCP support.

I don't get it. Most other A2DP devices support it. They have play/pause and volume support. I would really like to change tracks with my Rocket Fish MAB22 Bluetooth headphones.

Second to that. My coworker just switched to his 3 year old Blackberry after selling his 3gs on Ebay. He commented on how AVRCP works on it but the upcoming Iphone won't as of yet.

This is one thing I wish apple supports better. My car stereo is a2dp, and it would be great to switch tracks without taking the phone out of my pocket.

It's not that big of a deal. Due to range you can't go too far from your phone anyway. But if it is in your pocket or in a dock it is nice to be able to reach up and hit the button on your headphones.

Actually, it's a huge deal for me. I'd like full hands free support for times when it's not safe to be handling the phone (car and motorcycle are my two).
