chriswsk 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2005 Bluetooth is a technology for commnunicating wirelessly between different devices. The distance between two bluetooth devices can be as far as 100meters, depending the versions of the bluetooth adapter. Normally, for mobile phone, you can use bluetooth to connect to the handfree headset and transfer file between other mobile phones or comupter. But, actually not all the phones that equiped with bluetooth can transfer files. Some of the functions may blocked so that the phone can only connect to handfree. But I don't know why they are blocked. I'm thinking of getting this phone. And it comes with bluetooth. Does that mean i can transfer images/mp3 files to my phone for free? Or is there a fee? Also if i put mp3 files on this phone can i make them my ringtones?

leiaah 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2005 Bluetooth allows you to transfer files from your cellphone to another cellphone as long as both have blutooth capabilities. If your CP has a camera you can transfer the pictures or other files to your friend's CP wirelessly. CPs before used Infrared technology but it's slow and won't work when there's something of an obstruction between the two phones. With bluetooth you can transfer almost all file formats and even with greater distance(depending on the adapter). I say you buy it if you have the money. By the way, most Nokia and Ericsson models that are coming out already use Bluetooth technology so why not choose among these 2 brands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fusionx 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2005 It does a few things:- Transfer of data between devices that have the bluetooth function- This can include images, videos, addresses and more- It is used to link devices so sharing of files is possible- Made to get rid of wires so things could get easier- Can be used for a headset, speakers, laptops, computers, and basically anything else that has bluetooth....It was done because infared sucked on phones because of the distance where as bluetooth had 10m distance Now you know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spy_charly 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2005 well in my opinion and being direct, bloototh is like the wirelles LAN but with less range of distance....and obiouslly as you do on the internet you can download pics, music, games etc... and another difference is that you dont configure the device you just tell it to connect and it connects or atleast look for possible responses..

shigajet 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 Still, Bluetooth is a nice thing to have. My (new) Vodafone 902T Toshiba has that plus several advanced features and it's not even the latest model on the Japanese market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
