Vista Tutorial - Plantronics 320 BT Headset

Hi folks - I just paired my Plantronics BT headset with my laptop running
vista ultimate and was asked for a driver. As far as I know, there is no
driver needed for this headset and Plantronics doesn't offer any driver
downloads. Even without the driver, a pairing was created but I am unable
to use the headset as microphone in any applications and it is not
recognized as an audio device in the Sounds applet. Any recommendations
(other than contacting Plantronics <g>)?

TIA

Vista doesn't currently support the Bluetooth headset profiles. Don't know
which drivers Plantronics uses but there are Blutooth "drivers" out and
about for Anycomm and Widcomm.

Thanks - that was the final reason to revert back to XP.
