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. Mike

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.
Peter
