Bluetooth and NZ

[ferni69]

Bluetooth on theory would allow different products to "communicate" between eachother, effortlessly. Why is it for example that I cant transfer an mp3 song between a palm and pocket pc, psion, and etc. being bluetooth enable? Now, if microsoft has a bluetooth keyboard, why can't I use it with a palm tungsten or the nz series.....


or, can the nz series or the palm tungsten use this product

Some of it may deal with Drivers you may need for specific devices. BlueTooth is simply like a radio and transmitter. It uses Radio Waves (Radio Frequencies RF) to transmit/receive information. My buddy here at work left his BlueTooth enabled H5455 on, and we were able to go in and create directories on his PDA. We could have been cruel and loaded up the directory with 'crap', but we were nice about it. (Disclaimer: We did this via a BT enabled Laptop to his BT Enabled H5455).

I do believe you can send things from one type of device to another, so long as it can read the same file format. MP3s are in 'native MP3 format' on your Memory Stick... and should be able to 'beam' via bluetooth to another device as far as I know. I could test sending things bluetooth from my NZ to my buddy's h5455 (MP3s at least) today if you would like.

The Item in which you provided a link.... looks like a mini-BT Storage facility (5gb according tot he article). It seems this is something which devices can connect directly to to obtain information/files. You can write to it and read from it according to the article. It seems it would best be served as a small BT depot full of documents or images of things which would benifit people in the workplace. Nice device... but BT has such a limited range (around 30 feet) that I would just rather set things up on an BT enabled laptop. This does, though, offer the nice ability to just take this little gizmo from place to place.. to share with others and just put it in your pocket... rather than lugging around a huge laptop.

Nice product from the looks of it.... I hope it is cheap!!!!!!!! lol
