The n800 with OS2008 works well with most every single ear/mic bluetooth
headset I've used. Pairs with USB blue tooth dongles for laptops that
are now running less than $10 a unit. Connects with bluetooth phones
easily for pushing files to your phone. It's supposedly the same in the
n810 -- same OS. All the audio goes thru to the bluetooth headset when
they are paired. You can walk around most of the house without losing
bluetooth connection between your earpiece and tablet.
Fine print -- I don't know about stereo bluetooth headsets playing
stereo or audio quality of the stereo signal, if it's in stereo...
Also, if you've got a lot of bluetooth devices in the house that you've
connected to, they all can show up on your bluetooth neighborhood if
they are active.
* I'm not sure what the tablet's power comsumption issues having a
robust bluetooth neighborhood might be. It seems it could be
significant...
* I also noted that my laptop with a bluetooth dongle was picked up
by my n800 and, after pairing up, using the file manager on my
n800, I was able to move files around on my wife's laptop thru the
house wireless LAN thru the bluetooth to my laptop which is on the
house wireless LAN. I also grabbed some mp3s and moved them to my
tablet. It wasn't a real fast transfer, but workable.
* If my son is using his bluetooth headset with his laptop dongle, I
can also connect to his laptop in his bedroom thru bluetooth if he
returns the pairing code.
* Supposedly, I might be able to pair with his headset in his
bedroom if its not already paired with his laptop dongle and is
put into discovery mode and I grab it before he pairs with it on
his laptop.
* I can pick up his cell phone's bluetooth if it's on, ditto for my
cell phone. You can transfer files between the tablet and phone
and phone's micro SD card via bluetooth. Works to put mp3s on the
phone to make it an MP3 player. I'm not sure about audio
bluetooth hookup with the phone -- I've not gone there. We don't
have data services enabled, so I've not gone there... I recall
when connecting my phone to my laptop via bluetooth, there may
have been icons for audio in the phone's bluetooth list.
Again, I'm not sure of the tablet's power comsumption for all this
bluetooth activity. Could be high with so much bluetooth stuff going
on...
