ThinAir works reasonably well if you want to install Java games on any Bluetooth enable device including the Razr but it has limitations. You must quit the application each time you finish uploading and you can only do it one of the time. Also, you must manually type in the file URI instead of browsing for it. But still as a barebones app, it works. So I guess that's something, but is there a better way?

I thought Apple had fixed the bug in the Bluetooth File Transfer app that meant that ThinAir was necessary on Moto phones.

Have you tried the built-in file transfer app?

Oh did you write TA? It's still a good app. Well, BT File Exchange works for sending audio, video, and images for the phone but not Java apps. If you transfered it to the phone, it would just sit in one of those directories.

edit: Oh yes I see, choose "send file" instead of "browse device", it works just fine. Thanks for pointing that out and thanks for TA.
