Sony Bluetooth Audio Mini
I recently picked up the Sony DR-BT21G/B Bluetooth Stereo Headset. My intentions were to use it as hands free for my cell and also to listen to music from my cell.

Saturday, January 5, 2008
Thank the gods. Sony BMG has agreed to stop shipping DRM’ed music on it’s disks as they suddenly realized while they were flailing around trying to “stop all the piracy” that costs the RIAA $77 trillion dollars a year (rough estimate) Apple was kicking their ass at legitimate music sales.
