Bluetooth Dongle for Sound

Post by nathan »

I'm looking into getting a bluetooth dongle for motorola s305 wireless headphones...not for mixing or anything, just for kind of general music listening, etc. Does anyone have ideas for a good Linux-compatible model?

You mean just a plain Bluetooth dongle? I just bought one for my netbook, $15,- and it works like a charm. I use it to transfer files and to tether with my phone.

Awesome. Have you tried with headphones? I've heard reports of some dongles working in Linux for file transfer, but not audio...
