[MV] Headsets and bluetooth adapters

[David Morrison]

I saw in a local store recently a bluetooth adapter that could be 
connected to the input of your hifi system. The idea is that you can 
play music from your iPhone/iPod/iPad via bluetooth to the hifi.

It also could be used to connect to the output of the hifi to 
transmit to bluetooth headphones.

I haven't been able to find anything like it online (not sure how to 
describe it), but I'm wondering whether it might be possible to use a 
similar device connected to an approved microphone to provide audio 
to speech recognition programs?

Hopefully this would overcome the different sampling rate the 
bluetooth headsets use.

Of course, it would be necessary to provide power to the mic with a 
battery box like VXI(?) used to sell. It would mean that you wore the 
headset, and had the cable run into your pocket with the battery box 
and bluetooth transmitter.

Cheers

David

PS, these devices on eBay look like they might do the bluetooth part.
