hi all,

thanks a lot for this thread!
I bought a pulsar 590E bluetooth headset but it sounded really bad on my Acer Extensa 3102 WXMi Laptop under WinXP SP2. I went through the following steps and sound quality improved a lot!

- downloaded BTFlasher-v2-1-224-01.exe linked on page 6
- did firmware update with v0A5C_p2111_BCM2045B1_002.001.128_Tecom_0251.dfu from first page.
(there might be newer ones, but I was unpatient and did not want to read through the whole thread, maybe I missed something...)
- installed anycom driver anycom-bluetooth-usb200-250-windows-v5-1-0-3300-BETA.exe linked on page 6

microphone was identified immediately as hands-free-unit AND stereo audio. the appear both connected at the same time in my bluetooth environment.
I choose the device within any given application (winamp goes stereo audio, skype goes hands-free-unit and so on)
The stereo audio mode has AWESOME sound quality, even through a wall into the next room but no microphone.
The hands-free-unit mode supports microphone but is of rather poor quality, maybe this can be improved, I did not try much yet.

are there any suggestions how to tweak the quality of this hands-free-unit mode?
