I'm considering buying a Motorola V600 because of its bluetooth features and design, but it's going to cost me a little. Wondering if it's worthwhile, and what Bluetooth can allow me to do? Can I use it as a presentation controller?

1. www.apple.com/isync to keep all your calendars, contacts, etc in sync between all your computers/devices
2. If you have a laptop, you can use it for wireless internet access anywhere you go
3. Keep it near your Mac. When the phone rings, it will bring up a "caller ID" on your Mac, with information from your address book, if available
4. Use Sailing Clicker to make it a multimedia remote control for your mac

Only if you have address book running. You can get an app called BluePhoneMenu that runs in the system bar out of the way and will do this, plus more like pausing iTunes on incoming and outgoing calls and then unpausing when the call ends. other cool features too and can use either address book for caller ID or your phones caller ID (if supported).
