According to all the creative excuse makers we have for the Stream <smile>, Humanware conducted an EXTENSIVE survey of their clients and found there was no need for Bluetooth. Funny how Humanware's latest product does come with Bluetooth, I guess someone told Humanware of the advantages having Bluetooth in a product offered.
