Can anyone recommend any good bluetooth headphones?

I would like to be able to have some headphones that don't have wires so i can move around a bit at work.

If you know of any adapter that also recieves an audio stream on bluetooth and can let you connect normal headphones i would like to know if that exists.

or anyone's experience with BT headphones

Thanks

Is there any reason why it has to be bluetooth?

I mean... why not the usual wireless headphones? Aside of this, bluetooth has a limited bandwidth. I don't believe it could transmit audio in 44Khz 16bit stereo.

Bluetooth 2 (which for instance all Apple laptops have standard) has a bandwidth of over 2Mbps. More than enough for audio streaming at 44Khz, 16 bit stereo.

Actually, one of the main reasons to develop BT2 was the ability to stream stereo audio at high quality, something BT1 could not.

No i just felt that i should get some rolleyes.gif

The real reason is that i would like to listen to some music from my PDA which has a BT and 802.11b output - so i would like to know if there is exist any decent headphones.

So you are saying that BT v1.x wouldn't support high quality audio?

I have a bluetooth phone and it would be handy to listen to music but be able to take a phone call.

So far I haven't heard very good things about bluetooth headphones. Perhaps better ones will come onto the market eventually.
