hey one more thing regarding mp3 streaming and battery life. If you have a set that supports mp3 decoding such as the itech r35 then we should eventually be able to ship the raw mp3 across the bluetooth link. this will require the gstreamer bluetooth plugin. this also means less time spent in transmission since mp3 encoding is more compact than sbc. This way does complicate some stuff and it may not become the approach taken in maemo. if you want to reduce RF exposure but still want to enjoy cool stuff, get a bluetooth headset that uses bt2.0/edr. brad
