I just managed to get my little Motorola HS820 working as a headset on my desktop PC. This O’Reilly article on Getting Your Bluetooth Headset to Work in XP was helpful - although I didn’t have to install new drivers, the step-by-step was useful, and once I switched over the audio in/out devices in the Control Panel, system sounds, Yahoo Messenger, Skype, and MSN Messenger all work fine over Bluetooth. Sweet!
For some reason I still haven’t been able to make it work on my little Thinkpad X40, probably because it’s running SP1 & a different BT stack…

Dear Bowen,
That article is very cool, but…
It have a big problem, the manufacturer of the bluetooth headset have to provide the drivers.
For example i don’t have the drivers for my headset, and don’t know what should i use instead.
Bye,
