Bluetooth: PPC to Plantronics Headset???

[Keith Layton]

Here is one for you...

Is there any way to use the Bluetooth headset I have for my phone with my Dell? Possible uses...

Would it take a specific driver to make it work? Is it even possible from a hardware standpoint?

I have the plantronics bluetooth headset and the socket BT CF card with my Dell Axim X5 Advanced WM2003.

Well, there is that one registry hack that enable the headset profile under the Bluetooth manager..

It was posted here a few times, do a search for it..
Try that..

Beware! I tried it with my h2215 and Sony HBH-35 headset. And although I could hear sounds, the quality was HORRIBLE!!! I mean, not just low bandwidth telephone quality, but other side of the planet staticky short wave radio quality. And it caused my PPC to bog down to a crawl. Some serious compatibilty issues going on.

Others have said they have had success with it, but I suggest that if you don't have the headset profile already enabled, don't bother hacking the registry to get it to work.
