Just wondering anyone knows of any good ones or I suppose even if there are some that will work.




When you live your life on Twitter and Facebook, and are only friends with like minded people on Twitter and Facebook, you are not living in the real world. You are living in a narcissistic echo chamber.

The Apache does not support A2DP (Advance Audio Distribution Profile). To get stereo sound over Bluetooth you have to go with Bluetake or Logitech - these come with a dongle you plug into your device and it will transmit the sound from the headset plug to the headphones.

Check the Bluetake i-phono review to see what I mean.

Looks nice, although you would also need a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor for the plug, which I am finding is not the easist thing to come by.

Thats sort of why I was thinking of bluetooth, the only adaptor I have found was from expansys and was $18AU but then another $18 for the postage!

The included headphones sound pretty good, it would just be nice to have a choice.
