I started looking for a new mobile phone and saw some of the accesories available for bluetooth mobile phones.
The main thing which interested me was the wireless headsets they have and I was wondering if Apple might be thinking of producing something like this now they are supporting bluetooth.

I was thinking about a bluetooth enabled iPod allowing you to listen to it using wireless headphones. You could even have multiple headphones connected so the iPod could act as a wireless jukebox. You could even control it from a bluetooth enabled mac.

The other thing would be a headset which connects to your mac using bluetooth. If it is true that Apple will be producing video conferencing software then this type of headset would be great.

Anyone got any other ideas for bluetooth related mac products?
Nothing to see, move along.

Well I also though of a bluetooth iPod, but my thought was getting a bluetooth head unit in your car, so you could put your iPod in your pocket, and listen to it in you car in full digital quality, with out ever taking it out of your pocket. Mad cool Ish!

My only concern with audio over bluetooth is what sort of quality can you expect?

I too think Bluetooth headphones of some kind would be great for iPods. I always somehow get tangled up with the iPod earphones.

A Bluetooth enabled mouse, keyboard, and printers would be cool too. I am beginning to hate any kind of cables...

Thanks Apple for "helping out" with my obsessive compulsive behaviour.

Cheers.
Have a nice day!
