MY N80 Woes

7 replies · 2,830 views · Started 24 June 2006

Like a true first adopter idiot i bought an N80 thinking i could listen to my music wirelessly and in stereo in the gym. imagine my heartbreak to find out this is a non starter.
does anyone have any ideas if and how i can do this. i was thinking of using normal stereo blutooth headphones plus the adaptor for non bluthooth mp3 players, loke the ipod, plugging the adaptor into the 3.5mm headphone adaptor supplied with the phone. in theory when playing music it should go to the Bluetooth adaptor and then to the head phones.
In theory but would like to know if it works before buying some.

I have been using these for quite some while...

A-350 Wireless headphones

like you say it uses the 3.5mm stereo jack.
They are pretty good and do the job,

although my 2 rants about them are:

- not the most comfortable headphones
- bit of delay when transmiting audio, so no-go for video, but not a problem for audio stuff, mp3s etc..

ut.

Thanks guys at least in theory i know what i want to do will work. as i jog a lot i am keen on using earbud headphones. anyone know any that come with the bluethooth adaptor to covert into ADSL.

Yes any Bluetooth Stereo headphones that include a 3.5mm adaptor (e.g. for the iPod) will work fine. The caveat is that it will nto work directly with A2DP - you have to use the adaptor as the N80 does not have a A2DP profile.

Sorry should have bee A2DP, too busy also worrying about my crap internet connection. Thinking about getting the ITECH bluecon 35/2 and R35 clip, anyone used these before?
