bluetooth adapter for iTouch 2g

I recently bought a cheap bluetooth adapter off ebay for my iTouch 2g. It syncs up great with me S9's and my Oakler O ROKR's, but the big problem is I basically bought it for running and if I hardly nudge it at all it disconnects. I was wondering if any other runners out there have found a more "sturdy" bluetooth adapter. I have heard good things about the Sony TMR-BT8iP Bluetooth Adapter but I was hoping to find some first hand answers before I spend a bunch of money of dissatisfactory bluetooth adapters.

Dell XPS M1210, Windows Vista

I also have a bluetooth dongle adapter for my iphone, and run into the same problems. I've found that an elastic band around the iphone (top to bottom) works great and keeps the dongle in place perfectly!

I suggest you to wait till the new iPhone OS 3.0 comes out in summer. According to the preview, the iPod touch 2G has inbuilt bluetooth capability and hasn't been used in the current 2.2.1 OS. May be they will enable it in 3.0. That way you dont have to buy an adapter.

So after many attempts of calling motorola's customer support and getting both the headphones and adapter replaced to the most updated versions, I still cannot hear music out of my headphones. I can play/pause songs and change to different songs, but I can only hear music out of my 8gb 2nd generation iPod touch's external speakers. Motorola cannot help anymore, and so I believe I need to buy the Sony Bluetooth adapter that everyone has mentioned on the discussion board. Am I right? Will it really work this time?

I understand that the iPod touch doesn't have Bluetooth; neither does the iPod nano that I originally had. You don't need Bluetooth to use the d650 adapter with the s9 headphones. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
