Bluetooth equipped Cellphones & PPC

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Hi
Lots.... :-) in the area i live in (Denmark) i think it would be difficult
to find a cellphone that dosen't have bluetooth integrated. I have had 3
bluetooth enabled celphones and dailing from the Pocket Pc works great,
allsoo connecting to the internet via GPRS og modem works great..

Motorola makes a good Bluetooth phone (V170) that works with CDMA networks. In fact, the download speeds tend to be much better. Verizon has a free (other than minutes) 1xRTT service that claims bursts of 144 kbs and I've actually been able to verify that. Newer phones are being developed for EV-DO networks that will allow even greater bandwidths, although I don't know what the cost will be. As was stated they work just as you'd expect them. There are even some interesting voice command options that allow you to connect and dial-up and go to a particular website.

Outside the US you'll probably find more Bluetooth enabled mobile phones.
They work great with Pocket PCs.

The Motorola V551 is also Bluetooth enabled and can be dialed from the
PPC. In its handsfree mode it can also dial a (pre-learned) number vial
voice command
