i have a powerbook, thanks to my employer.

i have an ipod.

i also have a nice nokia 3650 bluetooth telephone.

i use them all a great deal. i love them, even.

but there’s something missing…

my nokia supports bluetooth headsets. i’ve considered getting one, but they’re pretty expensive and they don’t do what i want.

my powerbook supports bluetooth headsets. i’ve considered getting one, but they’re pretty expensive and they don’t do what i want.

so what do i want?!

i would like my powerbook to emulate a bluetooth headset. so if my phone rings, i can answer it via my powerbook. and have my powerbook automatically pause itunes, let me finish my call, and go back to it.

why?

because i have a set of cheap headphones i like. they’re the most comfortable headphones i’ve ever been able to find. i don’t remember where i got them, and i’ve not seen them since, but dammit, i like them, and i want to use them when i can.

so if i could send the audio from my phone to my powerbook, and have it play it over my headphones, i wouldn’t need two sets of headphones. nor would i need an expensive bluetooth earpiece that only goes in one ear and sounds terrible for playing music.

so that’s what i want. bluetooth emulation for my mac. bring it on!
