    Ok... I've read everything I can find and still a bit confused. I want to get a nice set of bluetooth stereo headphones and understand the basic Toshiba bluetooth drivers won't fit the bill (A2DP support?). What I'm getting here is I need to install the 3rd party WIDCOMM drivers, so I have a couple questions I'd appreciated some guidance on...

    1. WHERE can I get these WIDCOMM drivers... link?

    2. I see there are somewhat newer drivers on the ASUS web site, but I assume they are the same Toshiba stuff. Will this fix it to have A2DP support?

    I want to get some wireless bluetooth stereo headphones going, but this is looking like a nightmare. Is there going to be some XP/Asus future update to address this issue and should I just wait it out, or should I proceed to hack away on my notebook? I haven't even bought the headphones yet, but wouldn't that be a waste if it doesn't even work? Thanks in advance for any help!
