[gps-talkusers] Re: traffic noise, speakers

Is there a L connector on the Dongle connector for the Bluetooth headset
connection?  I presume it is a USB connector on the Dongle  and the adapter
is for the mini headset connection on the BrailleNote. 
        Thanks,

Hi Dave,

The answer is yes you can have both connected, because it is not using the
internal BrailleNote's Bluetooth manager which can only handle one bluetooth
connection.  The device itself is making its own Bluetooth connection with
your headset, so in effect you have two bluetooth devices "sorta" connected
to the Braillenote.
