    What i mean is-

    I want to have a BT headset that sends the sound of my notebook through BT but not by an external plug thing that goes into the headphone jack. Does anybody know of any and if so could you send me some links? I searched the site and i looked at some logitech ones but they all appear to be through a jack that plugs in.
    thanks

    any cell phone/handy/mobile BT headsets would work direct with ur built-in BT module of ur laptop, PROVIDING that the software that comes with ur laptop BT allowing the pairing with such device.

    i use BlueSoleil BT software and it works correctly with almost all current mobile BT headsets

    pop a search on eBay - bluetooth headset then u can see a whole bunch of choices

    cheers ...
