I've also been looking for a good pair of bluetooth headphones. There are quite a few headsets out (one ear only) designed for cell phones.

This is the only pair of headphones that i've seen (they include a mic also).

But at $250, they seem way too expensive...

Can you leave BT enabled on a plane? Doesn't that qualify as a radio device, like wireless that would have to be disabled during the flight?

don't know the "official" regulation, but as a private pilot, I know that a short range signal such as B/T won't be a problem.....

I'm sure there are plenty of people that have wifi enabled on their laptops when using them on a plane (simply because they may not know how to turn it off :? )

Leon, have you seen this? You should put something like this on your plane ;)
