Just wondering what you all think about Bluetooth.  I have been pretty 
skeptical of its overall acceptance, mainly because it seems like maybe 
the stuff isn't quite user friendly enough.  The 'pairing' process still 
seems needlessly complex, and the whole fixed-password situation for 
non-interactive devices like headsets seems somewhat insecure.  I have to 
say that the results are pretty cool though - 20 minutes of screwing 
around with a SonyEricsson T608, Bluetooth headset, and my G4 Cube left me 
with a pretty neat little handsfree rig that always carries my latest 
contact info and lets me walk around the office blathering away :)  
Anyway, has anyone else played with, or done any Stupid Linux Tricks(tm) 
involving this stuff?
