Are any of the BT Headphones on the market compatible with the x51v?? If so, any suggestions on what is best or preferred.

Thanks!

Thanks for the help! One more question...can you give me a link to the Tornado drivers and possible instructions? That would be GREATLY appreciated!

BTW - Skype Mobile works AWESOME with the x51v. If you have not tried it, do!

Can you clarify, you need Stereo BT headset or mono headset (like for cellphone, skype usage)?

Sorry, I realized after I put the Skype thing in there that I confused the issue. My bad! I want Stereo BT HEADPHONES for music.

Thanks, again, for your help. This site is way cool!

i am looking as well...I commute to NYC every day and the train is very loud. I'm currently using sony fontopia earbuds which are nice because they are sound cancelling. I'm waiting for the first bluetooth earbuds to be released but for now i will have to compromise. I'm currently checking out the bluetake i-phono mini's. However, I'm looking for a design that is either no neckband or behind the head style. I'm also looking for a set that has decent sound cancelling so i don't have to turn up the music over the sound of the train(in which case everyone near me can hear my music as well)

Any suggestions?

I am curious to ask this question so I will. You are sitting on a train listening to your music. At that point, is it necessary to be wireless that you want BT phones? Would the cord from a nice pair of Bose Quiet Comfort phones bum you out as you sit there and ride? Of course they cost as much as yoru Axim did, but I have tried them and the ads are right. They are awesome. For $350 they had better be.

i want something small and cordless. The cords can be a pain as it gets very crowded commuting to and from the financial district. Most of the time I don't get a seat for the 1.5 hour commute each way. I'd rather not have to worry about the cord getting snagged on someone. I like my current earbuds but i'd rather have a little more convenience. I can deal with them for now until a decent set of bluetooth earbuds arise.

I am using the Globalsat BTH 820
it is about the size of stick of gum, you can plug in your own earbuds


The other ones in earbud form factor is the iTech S38

I use the Siemens HHB-750. It works perfect with the A12 ROM or with the Tornado drivers if your ROM is < than A12. I can use it with the Broadcom BT Stack too.

I am very interested in that model...I like how the earpieces can be stored on the unit.

how is the sound quality? Doesn't look like it'll block out much outisde noise though. Also, it might be hard to get it here in the US

I use Jabra BT620s. Sound quality is very good indeed. Works well with the Widcomm stack v5.0. Expensive and bulky with no wires, and it'll last you 14 hrs of music playtime.

I wouldn't look at the logitech ones, because the headband always snaps, happened to me, and logitech wouldnt replace it because it was refurbished, i definitly would suggest another brand, and watch out for the others that look the same as the logitech, like hp, and toshiba.

Yes, I heard the same happened to quite a number of logitech owners, and that logitech has ceased production and support for the headset (hence the low price).
