I use iSync (& BT) to keep my cell phone's address book up to date and so I have a backup copy. I also install games, audio and pictures to my cell phone. I have also used a BT mouse with my PowerBook but I don't think I'll use it with my MacBook.

I love Bluetooth and phones. I constantly send files to and from my phone with Bluetooth. I've also considered checking out sailing clicker, which turns your mobile phone into a remote control similiar to the one you get, but more advanced.

I use BT to do dial up networking with my cell so I can have an internet connection. Since the MB doesn't have a PC card slot, I can't buy one of those data cards that the cell phone providers carry. Would've been nice but my workaround is via BT+cell and it works nicely. Gotta love an unlimited data plan  Gooo Sprint.

What kind of speed do you get off your cellphone?

You people are lucky to be able to use the internet via your cell phone without it costing an arm and a leg. Here in the UK, even WAP and GPRS are dead expensive, expecially on pay to talk plans (just loading up google on my pay as you talk phone via GPRS costs approx £1! Its absurd)

My cell uses the high speed "broadband" network. I have unlimited data for $40/month. Pretty good deal.

I envy all of you (exept for the harrisjamieh 
here in Portugal the rates are also as expensive as in the UK 
back to the topic: the BT is very nice for the cell phone.

I make custom wallpapers and ringtones and send them via Bluetooth. Cheaper and more creative than downoading from the web

I have a Mac mini hooked up to my HDTV. I have the Apple wireless keyboard and mouse paired up with it.
I have my cell phone and wireless headset paired with my MacBook. I use the cell phone to get my MB on the internet at work. I use the BT headset for things like Skype. Especially with the calling anywhere in the US for free till the end of 2006 thing.
