Bluetooth for Zumo

Having sorted out the 2610, I bought a bike fitted with a Zumo 500 but how do you listen to the Zumo? My helmet is currently fitted with a pair of ultra-slims and a 3,5mm stereo jack plug.

I do not want to access my mobile (one of the reason why I ride a bike was to get away from the mobile) but I do want to hear what I am being told by the Zumo.

Is there a small Bluetooth receiver (to slip into my pocket) into which I can plug my helmet? The Cardo Scala is just too much, I just need a receiver with a stereo output.

If you want to listen to the GPS prompts or music only you could plug your in-ear speakers straight into the Zumo cradle in the lead is long enough, if not you can buy an extension lead from somewhere like Maplins

Yes there is. Several probably. One shipped with the TomTom rider (although it may be 2.5mm?), and I suspect that most poeple don't use it, I certainly don't. You could have had mine but I've already lost it.

Would a Sony Ericsson MBR 100 work? It captures Bluetooth and its output is 3.5mm stereo jack but does it only work with 'phones?
