Is there a wireless lapel mic that works with an iPad or iPhone?

Is there a way to use a bluetooth earbud and external speakers as a lapel mic for a presenting? If not is there another solution?

Using a Bluetooth mic would make sence, the only problem would be getting the iPad to send the audio. Assuming you're using Keynote, the only thing I can think of would be to use the locations PA system or your own. There may be a way to use the iPad souly as the way of projecting your voice by using airplay or something along those lines. This question is very interesting, because I'v never seen this done. If you figure out a way, let me know, because this sound really usefull.

I'm not using KeyNote. There are Apps that allow you to use the iPhone's built in mic and broadcast to external speakers. Works pretty well. I like the app Microphone and Audiophone. But I don't want to hold onto my iPhone or have it hanging around my neck. And if I use the jack to add a mic, then I can't add external speakers. I've order BlueTooth speakers to see if they can add to the solution. I'd like to use a BlueTooth earbud for the mic. But as soon as a run AudioPhone with the earbud, the earbud's speaker now works and not the external speaker.

So, here I am. 🙂
