Hey All

I was wondering if any of your out there are using there BlueTooth mouse, and connecting to the Web with you Cell phone at the sametime???

Is this even possible??? From what I've read on BlueTooth it is, but want to be sure before I get a BlueTooth mouse.


Thanks!!!

i don't connect to the web with my bluetooth phone, but i have run iSync and Salling Clicker while using my bluetooth mouse.

should be no different, but i'm not 100% sure on that.

yes he is - you can have different devices connected simultaneously.

well, not quite. i don't use a bluetooth mouse. but since my example and the one above it show that bluetooth does support multiple apps (isync and the net connection) simultaneously, it should work.

well, it doesn't work simultaneously with my Sony Ericsson T68i connected to AddressBook AND Salling Clicker. But that actually is different from using two devices together.
I'm using a Sitecom Bluetooth USB adapter. Might be different from D-link adapter.

I think 7 simultaneously paired & connected devices is the bluetooth limit.
I do not believe there is a limit on the number of devices that can be paired, however.
