Is it possible to set up the N9 as a bluetooth headset (or playback device)? Sorry if this has been asked before but a quick search didn't find anything.

My aim is to play stuff from my laptop, stream it to the N9 with headphones plugged in there. Streaming could also go via the network, but bluetooth has the natural security advantage that a bluetooth signal can only be picked up from nearby.

PulseAudio has a networking feature, but I don't know if it's available on the N9, and not sure if it is any good. Feel free to try / look into it.
