Bluetooth headset with scanner?

[GroundLoop]

Does any commercial scanner support a bluetooth headset for audio?

It seems like the most discrete and comfortable way to monitor on the go would be one of those ubiquitous cellphone earpieces. No wires, common as a Camry, and your choice of comfort and audio level.

Further, with new cars supporting Bluetooth A2DP for music (iPod to car audio), it would be a seemless switchover to the car audio system for mobile scanning. No wires.

There are add-on gadgets to do this, like the Tunestream transmitter:
Amazon.com: Tunestream Bluetooth Transmitt: Electronics

And the smaller BlueBridge:
Amazon.com: Miccus BluBridge mini-jack: Portable, Bluetooth Music Transmitter with Swiveling connector for all (1/8-Inch) Headphones: Electronics

Has anyone used these with a Uniden BCD396XT or similar?

Some time ago I remember someone posting about a scanner with a Jabra 210 bluetooth,but I don't recall the specifics.

I went with the iLuv dongle and Jaybird 200. Works great, but battery life is fleeting...

I have resurrected my Nokia BH-501 bluetooth headset with my iPhone streaming from various live ATC feeds. I also purchased a Blueant bluetooth workers' ear protection headphones for doing the same thing at the building site where I work. And the boss has no idea!
