Bluetooth Stereo Headphones with Mic

Hi,
I am looking for good sounding bluetooth headphones for listening to audio, that could be occasionally used for Skype calls. I found couple searching the net, but don't know if the sound is good. I maybe asking for too much, but if you have first hand experience with that solution, please let me know.

I bought a pair of cheap bluewalker ones. The stereo sound isn't great (I suspect the built in speakers are poor), but they work OK with skype on both the Ax and the PC.

What you want is a stereo HEADSET, not headphones. The term headset means that there is a mic included. Headphones are an output device only.

I use the Motorola HT820 headset which has been discussed many times in this forum. Motorola also has their newest DJ bluetooth headset which looks like the old fashioned headphones but is actually a full headset.

I do appreciate your input, but Motorola calls that HEADSET "Headphones" on it's own web site (http://direct.motorola.com/ens/BTSte...&language=ENS), so I didn't know any better. Some of my friends swear by bluetooth headphones, but use no mic. I was wondering how much audio quality one looses with the addition of the mic ones. Thank you all for your advice.

I just bought the Motorola "MotoRokr S9". These do exactly what I was looking for, with an outstanding innovative noise reduction circuitry. With all the due respect, Motorola calls these "Headphones". Thanks for the inputs.

I was looking at the S9'. Did you have any problem pairing it up with your axim? What stack are you using?

I just bought the S9 for my 8525. they sound great for music and the audio is good for phone use, but the noise cancellation isn't great for the mic
