Nokia's first Bluetooth wireless cellphone headset, the HDW-2, is finally out, and Infosync is not impressed:

During testing, however, we observed several instances where the headset ended up losing all contact if a number of other tasks were carried out on the phone, requring an on/off reboot to regain a connection. The range of the HDW-2 is listed as being up to 10 meters, but the maximum operating distance achieved with a usable level of sound quality during our tests was 7 meters in free line of sight.
