I have a Motorola HT820. It "just works" with my Mac without problems.
The only PITA was that Tiger didn't support high quality audio, but I
managed to fix that.

In my experience Bluetooth support for my Plantronics M3000 has ranged
from "it just works" in Panther to "no it doesn't" "yes it does" in
various versions of Tiger and Leopard since.
Seems to me Bluetooth gets broken and then fixed with every OSX software
update.
At the moment it works as long as the M3000 has a healthy battery
condition.

Cf that rule for Star Trek films: the even numbers are better.

So is 10.4 even and 10.5 odd, or are you taking software updates into
account so 10.4.2 is even and 10.5.3 is odd?

Cheers,

I use a Tevion (Aldi brand) headset, and it works ok, but never with
flash video. I don't think it's entirely stable though- the only time
I've had my macbook crash in the last year has been while using the
headset- I'm sure it's related.
