Reminds me of Hacks

Good to see there's still some ingenuity for developing new software out there. I'd be more excited if I actually had Bluetooth, but anything that gives users more control is okay by me.

Look also at BtToggle

If you need something like this - and if you want Bluetooth & a decent battery life you will - I recommend you also look at BtToggle. The latest version senses if an app needs Bt and switches it on and then off automatically.

Sounds useful. Where can we find it?

Tarqaid, if you are asking where to get BlueTooth Toggle, go to www.whizoo.com. I would recommend Bluetooth Toggle Pro.

For Bluetooth-Enabled PDAs only strictly

This one should work with the following:

* Zire 72
* Tungsten T Series
* Sony's Early OS 5 Clies (i.e. NZ90)
* Sony UX50
* Tapwave Zodiac

Not sure about whether you can use this with a Bluetooth SDIO, though, but IMO this was meant to be for Palm-Powered PDAs with Built-In Bluetooth.

Intel PXA27X, Motorola's ARM Processor, or Texas Instruments OMAP? Pick one Palm Enthusiasts, the choice should be yours. When handheld makers make you choose the ARM Processor, you win.

After I installed this utility, when I sync my handheld, I get an error in the file Preferences.c. Has anyone else had this occur?

Update to v1.1

benmichell @ 7/22/2004 7:23:48 AM #
Version 1.0 of Blue Fang contained a bug that prevented it from properly turning off the Bluetooth radio. Anyone who is using Blue Fang should update to version 1.1, which is available from PalmGear or my home page: http://www.geocities.com/benmichell/

Apologies for any inconvenience!
