    Well, talk about confusing, all i want to do is buy a jabra bluetooth headset to use with msn, but nooooooo. Microsoft somthing or other doesnt support the headset profile or somthing. I have searched, oh and I know there are pages and pages out there in other forums talking about changing this file name and patching this file up, disableing this and enabling that, why have I just typed this all? Well I just want to know if there's a simple easy way to connect a bluetooth headset (make an AG(Audio Gateway)) to my sony vaio T2XP notebook (with internal bluetooth). I am considering buying a headset, but I'm not going to bother if its too much fuss, i'm not lazy, i just dont want to do something wrongs thats irreversable

    Thanks, Cameron

    The question you need to answer is whether or not the notebook supports the headset profile. If not, you need to find another Bluetooth stack that works with that card that does. It is terribly confusing, something the Bluetooth SIG needs to work on.
