Peter,
Carl found a very neat accessory I have now purchased and tested. It is
an audio Bluetooth dongle, meaning that it plugs into the audio jack of
any device and converts the audio into a Bluetooth signal. You pair this
audio dongle with a Bluetooth earpiece. I don't know that it pairs with
all devices. It paired with my Motorola HS810, which I use with my cell
phone.
It comes with a sub mini jack. The purpose of this device is to allow
handfree Bluetooth operation with a cell phone for those phones which
don't have bluetooth built in. A friend tried it on his phone and it
worked great.
You need an adapter from sub mini to the BrailleNote's standard mini jack
and it works wonderfully.
The device times out after a minute of no audio. As soon as you press a
key however and it receives new audio, it starts up again. It is about an
inch square and probably a quarter inch thick. I just Velcroed it to the
side of my PK.
I ordered it from BlueEssentials.com for $34.95
Netcom GN 1110 A210 Cell Phone Bluetooth Adapter (1110-05) = $34.99
Thanks to Carl for discovering this little gem.

Hi All,
I just got my Braillenote GPS last night and have only used it a
few minutes so far. I apologize if this question has already been
asked and answered here. I'd like to get either a blue tooth earphone
or possibly a small bluetooth speaker that would attach to the shoulder
strap. I have a Nokia earpiece here which will technically make a blue
tooth connection with my Voicenote, but it doesn't list any available
services and won't function as it does with my cell phone. What
solutions are working well for people? Thanks.
