    PS3 Bluetooth Headset

    Ok, so, I'm retarded with both Bluetooth and the search on sites. Just an fyi if this has been discussed and I didn't see it.

    I have an official PS3 Bluetooth Headset right now and was wondering if I needed anything special to make it work with skype. I know I need a dongle, but some of the reviews on the dongles I was looking at said something about buying seperate software for about $44, or something to that extent. I'd rather not do that if I don't need to. I figured I could get an answer here.

    Any help would be appreciated. Any advice or links to dongles that will work would be great. Preferably something that will work with windows 7 64-bit (for when I get my new computer around October).

    Aside from drivers, I used BlueSoleil (http://www.bluesoleil.com/ .. I believe they are drivers as well actually, but it has a management program) on my laptop back in the day and it worked with everything, should work with that too.

    Does yours annoy the hell out of your ear? my friend has one I played Mag on the other day, and unless I jammed it into my ear ( making it hurt after about a minute) it was flopping all over the place like my grandmothers tits.

    Thanks for the link. So with the software at that site any bluetooth dongle would do then, right? I'd assume so after a quick look at the site but it never hurts to ask.

    Also, I don't really notice, but that's probably because college/work prevented me from playing on the ps3 too often anyway. never had it really flop around when I have used it though.

    adjust the piece that wraps around your ear, i had the same prob and didn't know you could bend it, it stays in place. can also take it off and switch it around if you want to use it in the other ear.
