I have to say, I am beginning to understand what Bluetooth can do, and I am getting more an more impressed.

I have been using the HP BT GPS system for several months... Wireless is great!

A few weeks ago, I was with one of my sales managers, and we were able to connect both of our 4150's via Bluetooth so I could get some files off his unit... It was SO easy to do (once we figured out what we were doing), and MUCH faster than beaming. I must say, that we raised the "nerd" level of the restaurant a bit (but the waiter was fascinated by it all).

I finally connected my 4150 via Bluetooth to my home computer, and can now synchronize via Bluetooth. This is VERY handy, as I don't need to buy an extra connector or cradle (which is at my work), or have another wire on my desk.

Now all I need is a BT phone (C'mon Verizon... Get the v710 out already...) and a BT car.

BTW... Can enyone help me with my last post, about reading emails that appear to be blank (even after downloading them)?

Yeah, I agree with you entirely.

When Bluetooth first 'came out,' it was unpopular and many people said that it wouldn't take off. It's popularity in the UK is amazing, many people have got into habbits of 'Bluejacking' with their mobile phones.

I'm extremely impressed. I listen to web radio using my gsplayer on my ipaq over a bluetooth-enabled wireless internet connection. The activesync is also great, especially when XP is screwing about with the USB.

I allways laugh when I'm in somewhere like Starbucks, and there are 2 ppl playing on their ipaqs/laptops etc :D
