Is it possible to have a Mac Mini running OSX act as a bluetooth headset for the iPhone? (sound comes out the mini's speakers, sound goes in the mini's mic)
I'm guessing that the mini would have to support the bluetooth headset profile?

In Skype's Audio/Video preferences you need to see the microphone and speaker source to the BlueTooth headset in order for Skype to use them. So CMD-` to open Skype preferences, click the 'Audio/Video' tab icon and then check your settings.
In my own Skype install you can see I have to set it to use my Plantronics .520 headset if I want to use that for input or output:
No iPhone has native support for apt-X, but you can buy a dongle such as the Sennheiser BTD 300i or a similar one from Creative to enable apt-X support.
