From what I read, A2DP bluetooth profile is not supported until v4.2.2 and the current latest for 8800 is 4.2.1.179. Does anyone know when this support is planned? IS there a RIM roadmap anywhere?
You won't likely see 4.2.2 for the 8800. It'll likely jump to 4.3.1 in a month or two (we hope.)
Thanks. Any workarounds to get A2DP? Hands-free driving laws are here and I would like a dual purpose headphone/headset rather than just getting the phone quality. OR are there any good OBEX value headphones?
woo! i don't know what else 4.3 will do but i'm super psyched! thus far, i've only been able to use it with my headset and for dial up networking. all good things but i'd like to see more use out of bluetooth on such a great device. Any thoughts on where we can learn more about 4.3's feature list?

hmm. i have 8820, my os version is 4.2.2.160 and am using Plantronics Pulsar 590A. and for full support on this headsett you need A2DP and AVRCP. and i can use all this on my 8820.

The following Bluetooth profiles are supported in BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.2:
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) - Determines the quality at which audio is streamed from a BlackBerry device and a Bluetooth device (e.g. wireless headset) using a Bluetooth connection
Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) - Allows for the use of audio accessories to control music playback on the BlackBerry device
company phone. tis free. i'm not complaining. or am i?
i'm really more interested in what my macbook can do with my BB 8800. I want to be able to use it to make phone calls as well as answer phone calls when i'm working at home.
