I use a Belkin one I got in Harvey Norman here in Australia. About AUD99.
Works really well, although the WinXP software is a little dodgy.

Im using a Billionton USB Bluetooth dongle. Got it for about $70 from Lebanon and it is absolutely wonderful. I use with my T610, P800, HBH-60, HBH-30 and my iPAQ 3970. I also have an MSI but it doesn't even compare to the Billionton in terms of size, functionality and the software. I tried using the Billionton software with the MSI dongle and it worked but the Billionton dongle looks so much nicer - the fact that it's blue helps for a bluetooth device too

I want to buy this one http://www.scancom.co.uk/customer/product.php?productid=16195&cat=252&page=1

but they will charge me an extra £25 on top of the normal delivery charge because I live in Ireland. This doubles the cost, and I think it is way over priced - It costs £1.99 to send in the UK!!!

So could somebody post a link to a site that has a reasonable shipping charge to Ireland?

If I were you, I'd go for one supports the Headset and Audio Gateway profile. I have a billionton which I use to transfer calls from my cell phone to my desktop headset. Step two is transferring calls from my PCtoPhone telephony application to the cellphone, not managaing to get it to work, the s/ware is not very refined, will attempt again once a driver update is released. The MSI one at scancom.co.uk doesnt seem to support these profiles.
