You can see this screen (with DUN enabled) as part of Trevor Harmon's excellent howto: http://vocaro.com/trevor/treo-dun/Bl...h_services.png
I'm quite disappointed that my Treo is less featured (regarding BT) than the ubiquitous cheapo Sony Ericsson phones. |
You have to realize the "problem" with products like the treo have been, and still are, that it is a convergence device. The treo is a palm pilot with a phone attached to it. Are your contacts part of the palm application, or are they part of the phone? Is the bluetooth a phone implementation or a palm implementation? Hell, Im surprised they got voice working over bluetooth, and yet you can still use bluetooth GPS systems.
I don't think people realize that implimenting ideas is much harder than thinking of them. People want bluetooth on their treos, they got it. I don't think you can "blame" palm one if It doens't play well with every other bluetooth device out there.
You have every right to be disappointed (and I will be, if this isn't fixed by the time my GSM 650 gets here), but you shouldn't be surprised.
At least you can be happy that salling clicker works great!
