If you can't see it then it might not be "discoverable".

Or bluetooth might be off.
You know it makes sense. ☼ ☼ ☼ Growl.

Hey, WebOliver. Have you gotten iSync to work with your P800?

Until we get a 3 lbs sub-PowerBook, the 12-inch PowerBook will do.

Yes, that's the annoying thing that will confuse thousands of P800 users. It's not enough if the bluetooth setttings is set to 'auto' or even 'on'. The same parameters needs to be set to 'discoverable'. Somehow, 'discoverable' seems to be one notch more than 'on'...
