With all these BlueTooth-built-in PB's out there, do any of you use any BlueTooth accessories? Anyone use more than one?

1) What's the best bluetooth mouse with scroll wheel for PB's?
Anyone have the MS BlueTooth Intellimouse Explorer working with their PB?
How about something cheaper (much cheaper)?

2) What's the best bluetooth tablet? Is there one compatible with PB?

3) Bluetooth joysticks or other input devices?

4) Bluetooth printers from PBs? Is it fast enough? Reliable enough? Or is it better to just hook up the cable?

5) Bluetooth to cell phones for modem connections? Or is bluetooth too slow for that?

6) Bluetooth GPS devices to PBs?

Any good uses of Bluetooth to report?

I use BT all the time...

Syncing address books and calendars, as well as using my Mobile phone as a modem to browse the net when I'm out and about...

Great technology...

Yes, I use bluetooth to sync my T68i with AddressBook and iCal.

Furthermore I have a bluetooth handsfree kit in my car. Thats great!

Bluetooth rocks. No idea how I ever lived without it.

[AssassyN]

Never used it, don't see any near-future uses either.

I use bluetooth everyday. Here's my bluetooth setup.

[graphics84]

would love to use bluetooth with my Jabra but OS X doesn't suport it (great for iChatAV when it does).

I can't wait to use it for faxing with my T68i in panther either

I'd very much like to use BT with my PB but I'm waiting for Verizon to come out with some phones (hell, a phone) that's BlueTooth-ready and can utilize the 1XRTT network.

Until that happens, I can't really see much of a use for it at this point. I'm thinking about BT peripherals but they're a bit spendy right now.

I am using a belkin BT adapter with my G4/500 AGP, and my Siemens S56 cell phone (cingular) - it works fast, and beautifully, and if I have BT turned on on the phone, I can sync with it nearly anywhere in my house. ISync is incredible, address book, ical, seamless....

My PB 17inch is on the way. I have bought the MS Bluetooth Internet Explorer in anticipation of using it with the PB. I've been using it with my 17inch iMac using Microsoft's Bluetooth Adapter without difficulty. It's pretty nice and I can't wait until being able to use the cordless mouse and the PB without plugging anything in at all.

I have my Palm Tungsten T|2 sync with my PB with bluetooth almost everyday. But I, like amny others, are waiting for a CDMA compatible phone with bluetooth to come out! Arg, SE was going to make one then they cancelled it BAD SONY, BAD! If one ever does come out (i have verizon also) i'll buy it and use it EVERY FREAKING DAY with my PB.

I use it with my SonyEricsson T68i for syncing and control of keynote, and I also sometimes use a bluetooth mouse.

Beyond that, I have a bluetooth-enabled speakerphone system in the car, that has successfully ended my habit of talking with the phone to my ear because I had failed to wire up the handset before I started driving.

I love it.

As far as other bluetooth devices I'd like... I'd love a bluetooth-enabled GPS, but I can't imagine there's much of a market for that, seeing as I still have to use VirtualPC to use any of my GPS software.

[icruise]

I use it with my Clie TG-50 for syncing and whatnot. That's about it at the moment.

Hey, regarding the MS Bluetooth mouse:

Has MS released new drivers to program the 4th and 5th buttons yet? My understanding was that you couldn't program those buttons (or perhaps any).

[wulf]

I use BT with my P800 and a D-link adapter. Sync contacts with iSync, transfer software to phone, transfer photos to computer, etc.

It works good. Me like.

Haven't tried it for mobile internet access yet, I just surf and use email direct from the P800...

[wg2499]

no drivers yet.. right click left click and scroll wheel works great but no drivers yet .. I hope they come soon

I have bluetooth but can't make it work with my NECe606, which also has bluetooth. Annoying.
