    3rd party Bluetooth Stereo Headphone compatibility problem has been solved. My Bluetake BT420RX now plays streamed stereo from P990i. No more “The Bluetooth device is not authorized for this audio stream” error. Some other people in other forums also reported they can use their “generic” bluetooth stereo headphones with P990i after the update.

    i think the browser has a bug. it doesn’t matter what website you visit but if it has a search bar, the rectangular outline of the search space is invisible.
