    yup... teh metal one... and yup someone bit it.... asswipe... even better than that! another mate saw me flicking the phone out (i'd learnt a technique ;) ) and asked if he could have a go, and couldn't flick it properly... so he gave it one last go and gave a mega flick and the phone split and tore the ribbon cable.! But I got it fixed, and they replaced the bitten bit... poor steve, I didn't have the heart to tell him he'd broken my phone!

    the 8910i looks nice, but I don't know why they don't offer it in the normal titanium cover like mine, I've seen a black one and it looks poo... it looks like cheap plastic... oh and not to mention nokia LCD screens are poo... if I were to get colour I'd only opt for a TFT jobblie :D

    There's not many cheap bluetooth phones around at the minute. You can pick up a T68i or 6310 on ebay for around £130ish, but that's about as cheap as they come for now. Damn, if only I was rich enough to blow £550 on a P800 :)

    Ok,

    I have the exact same setup - a T68i and a WaveLinker USB dongle.

    I got version 2 of XTNDConnect Blue Manager, and the connection seems to work - I just can't figure out how to make this PC Control thing hook up with the phone... When I click on connect, nothing happens... :(

    Help?

    I have this dongle and the t68i, I've got most of the software working (not tried pc control), but something in MobileAgent is bugging me... how do I send an SMS using it? When I compose one and 'send it' it just stays in the archive folder?

    Also can't make the S-E outlook sync software work, any ideas?

    Cheers,

    Rob.

    I'm going to get into this bluetooth stuff. It's pretty new to me but i have a bluetooth dongle off my bluetooth MS intellimouse. Can i have another connection additional to my mouse? I know i have to secure the conection to the mouse by clicking a padlock but that's all. I bought it because of the nice feel, performance and look of the mouse really.:rock:

    Apparently you can have upto 7 connections at the same time with bluetooth, but have not tried it personally.

    The connect program has been giving me problems now too. It seems to have a mind of its own.

    Yep, you can have up to 8 devices with Bluetooth - but it gets tricky after 2 :blah: (Well, it does with my PC anyway...)

    That software is specifically for the T68i and im sure won't work with that phone!

    If you want the nifty stuff get a T68i... simple as that.
