Well some ebay sellers will export them, I think.

Is SBC over RFCOMM the only method they support? Or is their "not
conforming" just in small points?

I noticed that they don't work with either our phone or the BlueSoleil
but wasn't sure why. And they do say in the manual that they support
A2DP, and explain how to bond them, enter pin "0000" etc. I emailed
tech support but haven't got a response yet.

Too bad - IMO those are the only ones so far that are actually
comfortable. The iPAQ ones aren't too bad either.

the SBC over RFCOMM is additional.

You will find almost every information about that in the mailing list
archive. However the problem with the Aiptek is that it conforms to
AVDTP, but then it does not conform to A2DP when it comes to sending the
actual SBC stream.
