    Guys im looking at my revision notes now, and I need to know what a PAN is in relation to bluetooth,
    I thought it was personal area network,

    But my notes state PIC = pico area netwok.

    Any one got any thoughts on this? or know whats correct?

    what would you guys put in the exam question,

    In relaiton to bluetooth what would the letters PAN stand for?

    Cheers people :thumb:

    PAN is Personal Area Network. Because bluetooth devices normally have a short range it's only people with that range that can access it.

    I second Personal Area Network. I am sure I have heard that in relation to bluetooth many times.
