As most of you know i have a full touch screen PC system in my Tsport, well i now have bluetooth which allows me to control my music system (3000 odd mp3's) from upto 30m away with my nokia. great for at cruises.......... what'd yall think?

Sounds very good... and as i've discovered... bluetooth is the future! Its brill.... I was sat in a boring lecture, and my fone starts buzzing, telling me iv got a file waiting to download, so i hit yes, and its some !Removed!.gif thing... kinda cool! And, i had no idea where it was coming from, so i tried my nluetooth, and found about 8 people around me were on bluetooth, so i sent the msg around... chuckles were spreading all around!!

i think the phone would need confirmation before connecting to the net....

[Chuck04]

u can set a password up!

[Chappers]

My phone has a password that the other user must confirm..

If i send files from my PC.. i must authorise the passswrod before it can do this

the passkey that you type is only used for the comunication between those two devices it's also used to encrypt the data sent between them. so the longer and more complex the passkey the harder it is to crack :)

th badthing a bout bluetooth on mobiles is that the passkey can only contain numbers and is usualy between 4-6 digits this can be cracked in a matter of mins.

if ur using a symbian OS phone (don't know about the others) you have to confirm all transitions from non authorised devices. i think some of the ericson based phone accept text data automaticaly. so u can send them messages. there are backdoors in bluetooth that could allow someone the use the access the internet through your phone but @ 9.6 Kbps whats the point

software that we used on earpl's yarris is called bemused and is only avalible for symbian OS e.g N-gage, P800 (crap but hey), NK7650 etc.

you can down load it here - http://www.compsoc.man.ac.uk/~ashley/

the only real use we've found for this software is loading up sound clips from half-life's barny sitting in the pub waiting for someone to walk past the car and getting it to shout silly things at them like "what do you want on your tomb stone?". yea turner what do you want on your tomb stone?

[earpl]

well...........anything just as long as its spelt right. otherwise it will be no concern of mine :)
