6.5.8 Headset
Overview
The Headset application allows this computer to use a Bluetooth headset (or any other
device that offers the Bluetooth headset service) as the audio input and output device for
this computer.
Possible uses include:
•
If this computer has on-board telephone hardware, a Bluetooth headset might be
used as the audio input/output device to make/receive telephone calls.
• If this computer has voice recognition capabilities, a Bluetooth headset might be
used as the audio input device.
Any other scenario that requires audio input/output can potentially take advantage of a
Bluetooth headset to replace a hardwired microphone and/or speakers.
NOTE: Windows 98 limitation—click here for more info.
