Why don't MP3 players support bluetooth?

Bluetooth is a neat way to get rid of the tangling headphone wires. The technology is mature - and I can already see it being used on cell phones.

I cannot understand what prevents manufacturers from providing bluetooth support with their MP3 players. Cordless headphones would be such a hit.

Is there any technology constraint that is preventing this?

I think the limited bandwidth of Bluetooth would be the main problem.
