Re: i phone bluetooth
I don't think the bluetooth can do this. I believe it will only connect to earphones.

Re: i phone bluetooth
No the bluetooth on the iPhone is limited only to devices like headsets and headphones. Mind you the headphone bluetooth does not include stereo. You cannot connect to computers or other phones via bluetooth. I think Apple has attempted to thwart all possible means of hacking the iPhone. There was a time when it was quite possible to hijack a standard phone via bluetooth and download information from it as well as use it to get free calls. I saw this a few years back and I suspect it is still possible. If Apple didn't stop bluetooth connection and left its phone vulnerable like many standard phones I am certain that the media would by saying iPhones have been hacked whereas if it was a Nokia or Motorola then the media would be saying Mobile phones are being hacked Apple is far too big a target at the moment.

Re: i phone bluetooth
Bluetooth is so terribly slow and short range and fraught with incompatible implementations compared to wifi or 3G and complicated by the need to pair devices etc. I think Apple probably reckons you'd be better off emailing photos back and forth between phones and thus having them directly added to or sent from the iPhone Photo library app. If the other phone can't do email, I'd be blaming the lack in that phone. I always found Bluetooth so cludgy in all the phones I've used over the years. (including my $1000 Sony Ericsson P900 and $900 Windows Mobile PDA phones. YMMV :-) Music and other file types are a bit more of an issue on the iPhone - it doesn't easily allow adding other files on the iPhone as attachments into email, but you can still receive, store, view and forward such items by sending and receiving email messages. Unfortunately as Apple has said, there are a lot of things on their iPhone todo list which they haven't gotten down to yet! :-( So it's still quite possible it'll come eventually (along with Copy/paste) - I'm hopeful we'll get quite a few such new features as well as bug fixes with iPhone software v2.1 when it arrives sometime in the next few weeks. If you're willing to jailbreak your iPhone, this app used to work for sending music and ringtones between iPhones: http://www.tuaw.com/2007/08/21/song-sender-sends-iphone-tunes-to-email-and-ringtones/ -Mart On 04/09/2008, at 3:57 PM, Michele Acott wrote: Can anyone tell me if the iphone can do phone to phone bluetoothing of pic and music.

Re: i phone bluetooth
I agree with Reg - that's crazy!! We were recently on a group tour - several laptops and many cameras. Bluetooth was the easy way for us to download our photos onto our laptops, swap photos between ourselves etc. My other half had just bought a sub $200 nokia with a 2MP camera and this could do all this with ease - if this is beyond the capabilities of the iPhone then that's a BIG negative in my book. I also don't buy the hacking excuse - bluetooth comms are built into every Apple laptop/desktop is this a huge security hole? If not, given that the iPhone runs an OSX version, why can't the security be comparable to the laptop? Just my 5c worth! Cheers Neil -- Neil R.
