Sony

Apr-2011

I got a Sony HWS-BTA2W bluetooth stereo audio adapter, in Sony's catalog, from Amazon for about $50.

Receive mode

It is intended to allow playing music from a bluetooth mp3 player or phone. I connected the line out to an available line input on my stereo receiver.

Mac

It pairs with MacBook Pro, so that I can watch movies on the laptop and listen to the audio track on the stereo. When playing music you select the HWS-BTA2W bluetooth headset as the output option.

Ubuntu

I ran bluetooth-wizard from the ssh command line (I don't have a monitor on my media server.) and got a connection right away. Running gnome-control-center works too.


Transmit mode

It will send audio (but you have to throw a switch to put it in Tx mode) so you could feed music to a pair of bluetooth headphones.

Motorola HT-820 headset

Passkey = 0000

Mar-2007-- I have had this headset for about a month now. Have not really done much with it except confirm it works. I have connected successfully with a Motorola Razr phone and a Dell Axim X50V. I have not gotten it to work yet with a bluetooth/usb dongle and a computer. Either windows or linux. Summer 2012 -- we use this one with our Mac's to make phone calls. Sometimes I watch movies (on my Mac).

Pairing

Motorola H350 Handsfree headset

Using this now with my Galaxy Nexus phone.

Takes about 2 hours to fully charge it according to the manual.

Pairing: hold down the call button for 6-10 seconds.

Turn on: hold down call button until light flashes

Turn off: press and hold until light blinks rapidly
