You are completely incorrect. Bluetooth is a completely defined standard with well defined "profiles". If a manufacturer's headset does not work, then it is completely on the shoulders of the manufacturer. The problem is either going to be that the manufacturer did not 100% comply with the profile specification OR there is a problem physically with the device in that perhaps it is unable to communicate reliably across the entire frequency spectrume bluetooth operates on, or some other aspect within the manufacturer's contol, NOT the handset manufacturer. This would be the equivalent to saying that particular wifi router (let's go with 802.11g) doesn't associate with every wifi card out there. It's going to be a problem for those that "add a feature" which stretches the specification, or doesn't comply to it exactly.

I can pretty much guarantee you that if the manufacturer complied 100% with the radio and profile specification, it would work properly.
