Hey

Couple quick questions.. from my reading, bluetooth sony ericsson phones seem to be the best out there for bluetooth sync with apples.. Does anyone have a Sony Ericsson S710 or a Motorola Razr 3? How does the bluetooth on those work in tiger?

Also, can a bluetooth headset for a phone work for video and audio chat using ichat or skype?

Thanks

Frank

I have a Razr v3. It syncs perfectly with iSync. My powerbook is coming in the mail in a few hours (), and I'll test the bluetooth transfer for you when it gets here.

I can second the v3 works perfectly with Tiger, even over BT using iSync. I haven't tried it since I loaded Tiger but you definitely should be able to use a BT headset for iChat and/or Skype.

Although it's not the same SE model you're looking at, I've got the T608 (Sprint) and have had no problems w/ the Address Book and iSync over Bluetooth.
