Use Magician as bluetooth skype headset?

I have a laptop with no microphone, but it has bluetooth. Is there a way that the magician can act as a bluetooth headset for my pc?
In that way i don't have to buy a microphone, and can make wireless phonecalls with skype.
Thanks!

As far as I know, the Microsoft Stack doesn't offer the possibility to work as BT Headset. It can only use BT Headset. I can also not see a possibility in software to configure such a functionality.

Pocket Skype might be able to do what you want. In a round about way.
Run Pocket Skype on your PDA and access the internet via BT through your laptop.....is that possible?

I don't think the data rate would be sufficient.

Yer it is.. bluetooth streams my vids (using myorb) extremly well .. the question is if skype will work with the lame activesync tcpip limitations (media player works and IE but not windows networking arg!)
If anyone has a solution to the windows networking over bluetooth activesync please tell me!

i confirm that skype over bluetooth works perfectly!

Thanks for the suggestion
I will try that as soon as i get home!
The goal is, not only to use skype(or an other voip network) but also to use voice with MSN messenger on my pc trough the microphone of the magician.
Any suggestions for MSN or something like windows soundrecorder (sndrec32.exe).
maybe selecting the 'what you hear' in the recording properties. I guess you'll be hearing an echo if you do that.

orb works great u can even watch video from ur pc and webcam as well... www.orb.com
as of skype, you can use ur bt to activesync w/ laptop, then start using ur skype...np...
btw, I have try it w/ minixda n xda2s 2003se...not w/ wm2005....enjoy

Yup orbs the one i use... it works well but takes up a fair bit of resources on your pc at times.. mp3s stream over the bluesioil stack via windows networking but im going to try this new stack soon (the one just posted about in the magician forum).
Go the mini!! hehe

Since I have Web server configure, I use TCMP player to open media file w/ HTTP. Works greats.

Bluetooth palm GPRS?

Hi,
I've been trying for hours trying to connect my PALM to my Imate JAM to make my Palm surf via GPRS over the JAM. I've tried everything, also tried Wireless Modem mode. Do I need a different bluetooth stack to make this work? Any suggestions on connecting another PDA to the JAM to browse GPRS?
Thanks!

May I have to use MS activesync over BT to acces the internet or not?
Could somebody tell how should I use internet over BT step by step ?

Transfer voice call to PC

Hello all, I am trying to find a way to transfer voice call to PC so I can use PC speakers and mic to answer the phone. Anyone know what I can do? Thanks in advance.

I could do it through Bluetooth. Pair both the Device and your PC and connet to Audio Gateway service.
Once you get a call you should be able to answer it from the PC itself

Hi pprakash
Do you know if I need anythig program to do that?? I try to register my Atom thru BT but I couldn't locate Audio Gateway serv. Many Thanks.

Hi. I figured it out already. It is BT problem with XP Serv 2. All solved now so I can integrated auto answer with PC on top of home automation. Thanks again for your advice.

XDA Exec connecting to mobile phone to use its internet connection

Okay this may sound a little odd!
I have an XDA Exec running WM6.1 Pro
I want to connect via Bluetooth to my Sony Ericsson K800i to use its internet connection. reason being that the XDA is not my primary phone so if i can just carry it around when needed and use the K800i web connection then that would be better for me. It would also stop me having to get a data connection for it.
But it looks like there is no option within bluetooth to do this anymore.
In my totally naive way i tried installing a new bluetooth stack but that just caused me lots of BT problems and I ended up doing a hard reset.
Also does anyone know if bluetooth will cope in this way if I wish to listen to streaming radio stations via this way of connecting?
Thanks for you help
