I own a Vaio (VGN-A115Z) running BlueSpace NE (Version 3.4.00.13230) software.
I recently purchased a Sony Ericsson K750i (very very pleased with purchase) and even more recent a Bluetooth Headset - Sony Ericsson HBH300.
Now I have tried and tried and tried to configure the headset so as to use SKYPE with my HBH300, but to no avail. The headset is recognised by windows as an Audio device, and even shows up in BlueSpace as a little icon of a headset with spear mouthpiece, but it still is not recognised.
Has anyone else had a simliar problem, or even better a solution to this, as its driving me mental.

1. Make sure that your HBH-300 is on and paired properly with your PC.

2. Try 'Right' clicking the HBH-300 icon, then choose 'Connect'. You should hear your headset ringing.

3. Then push the button on the HBH-300 to complete the connection.

4. Launch 'Skype'. From 'Tools', choose 'Options'.

5. From 'Sound Devices', choose 'Bluetooth Audio'. You should now be able to use your HBH-300 for making calls.

I've been using my HBH-300 with Skype and have not encountered any problems.
