I have been working with Stereo BT and a Jabra BT620s for a while and was resigned to intermittant skips when listening. Just recently I switched to Coreplayer and was AMAZED at how well it did. All my skipping was gone and Coreplayer is even controlled by headset.

A few other really nice things about Coreplayer:
PROS:
- It pauses Streaming podcasts when a call comes in (unlike TCMP which mutes the sound, but continues to play - to the limit of the stream)
- It is very easy to find the music you want to listen to (my music is nested in folders by artist and then album) Instant playlist.
- It will play the playlists generated by Microsoft Voice command - IE "Play Everything".
- Some of the audio files I have in WMA (variable bit rate) would slow down when being played over bluetooth with TCMP OR WMP.....no problems with Coreplayer.
-Supports Album cover display like WMP does...(unlike TCMP)

CONS:
-Does not support the "flash Bundle" for streaming Youtube that is very useful in TCMP.
-Once a file is playing either through A2DP Bluetooth or through normal channels, you must exit Coreplayer, change to A2DP or change out of it, then restart Coreplayer to get the sound output to change.
-It is not free
-I am having a hard time trying to make it an OEM - Something about "gx.dll is a folder not a file" error when compiling in the kitchen.



One other "must do" thing I have found to get A2DP up and riunning is that I must turn on bluetooth on the 6700 first, before turning on the jabra Headset in order to hook up.
