> A2DP on all Walkman?
Bookmark topic
Yes, the K790 and K800 will both support A2DP.
I am sure all SE phones will from now on, proving my theory that it was a hardware limitation and not a marketing decision to keep it off beforehand (especially when other handsets that weren't even marketed as music phones had it a long time previous!).

sometimes i just don't understand SE marketing theory, because, Why don't put A2DP feature to phones that should have it by default (w810 for example). is this true that older mobiles (not W) have this feature?

I would expect most phones to have this profile, Walkman or not. It must be so cheap to implement, it would be silly to exclude it.

Maybe its because A2DP hasnt gained that much popularity until recently only. But yea, it should have been implemented on all phones.. imagine a walkman phone that cant stream music.

As I recall, SE only introduced A2DP into phones when they had a headset capable of using it. At the time of the W810, not too many manufacturers had phones with A2DP and nor were there very many headsets available either
I don't think SE were too far behind introducing this profile

not shure if it's correct but i understand the following of bluetooth;
bluetooth uses certain profiles to make use of a bluetooth option.
like filetransfer is odex-profile, same goes for a2dp. but a profile is some hardware related thing. so it can't be added later. unless they have the profile but not activated it with software, so it can be made avaiable through software update.

I am not sure about that myself. I think wireless headphone will become more and more common from now on.
The only thing that frustrates me is the inability to stream radio to your wireless headset as well as music.
Maybe someone can test this for me - but if you plug in your wired headset for the radio reception, can you still stream the fm radio to your wireless headset?
Sorry for dragging this slightly off topic.

I tried that but unfortunately it doesn't work. when the wired headset is connected you cannot transfer sound to a BT headset

Pity!
The words 'built-in FM antenna' spring to mind.
