I've search esato and various sites to understand how I could listen music from my P800 using my newly bought Logitech B/T headset (quite cheap but working well).
As viewed in Esato forums, a team was to be built to provide the required codec to do enable this feature (around Feb. 03 :

Have I miss something ?
Anyone having news on P800 or even on the P900 ?

Don't expect to see anything until Q1-Q2 of 2004.. There was a Korean company that sold me a dev BT stereo headset that also allow direct streaming from GPRS.. However, it didn't take off and there were quite a few hicups with the P800 at the time.. They kept one brand of there headsets, but never fully developed the one that would put a lot of smiles on the faces members on here.
Fortunately there is a flood of BT enabled devices that are forcing manufacturers to start looking in that direction.. Word on the street is that we should start seeing the BT keyboard, stereo headphones, pens come around... I've been testing S.E.'s BT pen (Cha-30) for 5 months now and I have to say I have used it less often then I anticipated.. The pen really is independent of the phone and simply uses it as a GPRS access point.. Which figures why SE decided not to develop the pen for consumer use. Until then its not worth modifying/creating any patches for current devices.. BT conformance is a tricky field to toy around with.. For instance if the current BT headsets were patched to allow audio streaming from a BT device the battery would drain much faster and would be unstable.. So there are a lot of hardware modification that one needs to keep in mind.. Patience is all we can side with for now.
