Unless Sony deliberately locked-it-off for non-Sony BT headsets.
You wouldn't need a dongle if you used a non-Sony BT headset.
The PS3 already has "standard" (I'd assume) BT integrated.....
It'd be worthwhile looking into at the very least........
To answer your question......
The Sony BT headset should work with N900, so long as it implements standard BT.
Even if it's not 2.1 EDR, the N900 will be backwards compatible.
the sony headset dont needs a dongle.
i think i will buy it and if it doesn't work with n900 i simply give it back

I personally may eventually get 2 BT headsets; one for my smartphone & one for my consoles.
But not everyone has cash to burn, good-luck...

I bought a pair of Klipsch S2m earphones which had been suggested, but they don't work, they make a strange and loud clicking noise, so it seems the N900 is sensitive about which earphones/headsets work.

Executed
Code:
$ alsamixer -c0
Tested the mic in recorder application. There is no status bar icon though and this has to done everytime the earphones are plugged-in. Maybe a script will help.

i use sonyericsson MW600,which is the Best Bluetooth Headset if u r a music junky,it has nice screen for detail power status,mo.number,pairing etc(does not show name instead number in N900),built in FM,awesome eairphone,multipoint(i use my computer,my sony HiFi and N900 with this),plus all buttons u need,long Battery life then it's rival and it accept N900 charger.i like default headset which comes with N900 but it's cords design is weak n within months i lost oneside of sound then it's basicaly useless for music,hope nokia will makes more strong joints in thier headset just like Shure Headset.
Note, when u reboot or turn on ur n900 it autometical connect but act as a remote only first,u just have to edit,disconnect then connect in bluetooth setting(status bar)
Buy Original (saw lots of copy)

I got the nokia HS-43 wired headset from Amazon.com. Very comfortable, great stereo sound and the buttons actually work with the n900!

That is interesting. I saw a similar complaint on an mp3 player forum about somebody's mp3 player killing earphones. One earphone after another burned out, always in the right channel. The cure was to avoid plugging/unplugging the earphones while the player was turned on. Apparently that particular player was sending dc into the earphones when you do that. Maybe the n900 has a similar bug.
I also had a headphone die on me last month. All the symptoms were exactly the same. Also I pull out the headphones a lot, while the music is still playing. Hmmm...
Anyway, i gave my headphone to Nokia Care, they send away somewhere and I got a brand new headset after 10 days (ten days!). The thing is, I want to know the validity of the warranty period for the headset. Will it only be the lifetime of the phone or is it the validity of the new headset from the day I got it?
Nokia says that headphones warranty is from the date of purchase of phone and not headphone.
