Re: wireless headsets

In case anyone stumbles on this thread....

I finished up with a Logitech H800 dongle/bluetooth which worked out of 
the box - Ubuntu 12.04. I don't have bluetooth on my computer, but the 
bluetooth works well on my Android so that's a bonus.

Both sounds and mic are about the standard you would expect - not high 
fidelity but acceptable. I'm getting an occasional interference noise 
which I need to investigate, but that could be anything.

It's got the world's most cryptic instruction sheet, but there isn't 
much to know so that hardly matters.
