Voice Command & Ht820 BT headphones

[odalanizi]

Hey all,

Okay so I recently purchased the latest Microsoft Voice Command -- it's brilliant so far, however I've found one major aspect that defeats the purpose of the software (at least for me)

Basically, what I want to do is use the Voice Command software with my bluetooth headphones -- however the only way to active the talk feature on the VC program you have too press the assigned hard-button ... This really defeats the purpose of "hands free" and leaving my PDA (x51v) in my bag as I use the headphones to handle everything from checking the time to changing the song!

So, please tell me if there's a way to allow my BT820 headphones to have one of its buttons assigned to activate the talk feature on VC program

PS:
#1) I also get a lot of disconnections for a2dp on my BT820 headphones. Basically it works nicely, but while listening sometimes the sound disconnects, and the only way to reconnect it is to turn off bluetooth/headset then turn em both back on/re-pair them. It's kind of annoying, any work arounds?
(I'm using the widcomm stack)

Sorry, this is a known deficiency. There is no known workaround for this.

Did you read the article I posted the link to?

This issue has to do with the way Bluetooth is implemented on a Pocket PC and the way Voice Command (or any voice command the software) is written.

Someone who has the IPAQ 510, which is a smartphone, tells me that Voice Command works perfectly with a bluetooth headset on that device.
