    Why can not I get a straight, knowledgeable answer. Will 10.2 run a BT heart rate monitor and a BT headset concurrently?

    thks in advance

    Who have you asked? Fundamentally there should be no reason provided the OS has the required BT Profiles. If you're talking about stereo music headphones you need A2DP. A mundane phone headset would use either HSP (Head Set Profile) or HFP (Hands Free Profile). I'm not familiar with BT heart rate monitors but there is a profile for them HRP or Heart Rate Profile which uses the MCAP layer.

    BB10 does have the A2DP profile so any headset that support this profile should work. The trick is with the heart rate monitor. It seems to me you need some application software to be of any use so I would start with the heart monitor vendors to see if any of them support BB10.

    You missed the point.

    I can run a headset by itself and I can run the HRM by itself in 10.1. I cannot run both together (at the same time) in 10.1. Can I run both at the same time with 10.2? I have not downloaded the leak yet as I am a little nervous about doing so.

    First rule of IT advancements: don't assume anything will actually change.

    Having said that, I don't have enough information to make even an educated guess.

    Um.... I'm no expert, but I don't recall too many instances where I have seen bluetooth connect to more than one device at any given time. actually I don't recall any at all. Again I could be wrong but that has been my experience.
