Bluetooth clip-on Stereo earbuds - will they work?

Do you think these would work?
I like the idea of earbuds more than clunky headphones.

Thanks

They look promising but the cord is what drives me crazy. When you turn your head the cord yanks them outta your ear. Looks as though it would work.

Buy them and let us know the results. Personally I'd go for a light durable headset. Those earbuds hurt your ears after a while.

OK, I got then and was able to make them work. Audio quality is low, of course.
The headset cord is short, probably wouldn't comfortably reach to waistline. More like a collar or shirt pocket clip.

This is my first Bluetooth experience. I paired them as a headset on the list of options in the BT manager wizard.

When I restart the Axim, I have to go through the setup wizard like they are a new device. Is this normal, or should there be a setting where the Axim recognizes a previous BT device if its in the area and turned on?

Thanks

Well, if its paired, it should, but it depends. For me, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Ok, that works. I was also wondering if there's a setting to have it automatically connect whenever the headset is on and in range of the Axim.

Do they have anything that you can plug any old earphones/earbuds into? Just a small bluetooth device with a headphone jack? Even better, one that also has a USB port...but that's just dreaming....
