Bluetooth In Action
In the United States, Bluetooth gets completely no respect. It really is having said that, becoming more and more widespread in notebooks, PDAs, and in particular cell phones. Bluetooth will offer wireless users a way to transmit small amounts of data over short distances.
Now, Bluetooth is facing stiff competition from new wireless technologies. Referred to as UWB or Ultra Wideband, it promises information transfer of up to 480 MB a second – although most current Bluetooth devices transfer data up to 721 KB a second.
For the time being, Bluetooth devices are surely cropping up. Below, we will take a look at a few of the accessories offered with Bluetooth technology.
Talking to the dashboard When pairing it having a cell phone, the CCM Blue Warrior automobile kit becomes a great speaker phone that plugs into the power adapter of your vehicle. The noise cancelling microphone will minimize background noise efficiently, with the big buttons making adjusting the speaker volume a snap. While the Blue Warrior is far from sexy or sleek, it’s very practical.
Tiny tuning box Part MP3 player and part hands totally free phone, the compact and lightweight Sony HBM-30 is an appealing gadget that lets you accept calls with minimal interruption of your tunes. Whenever you get an incoming call it’ll automatically pause your music, then you speak into the built in microphone that it is possible to wear around your neck or clip to your clothes.
The pen With Nokia’s SU-1B digital pen, it is possible to doodle and make hand written notes in ink on a special pad then transmit them from the pad to your Bluetooth phone. Being an alternative to typing on a cell phone keypad, the pen is extremely handy, although a pricey tool from MMS fans.
Snapshots Should you desire to make slide shows together with your camera photos, the Nokia SU-2 image viewer will let you disply your pictures on a TV or projector. Basically hook this square gray device to your TV’s input with the built in cable, then beam the pictures to the SU-2 from your Bluetooth enabled phone as well as the photo fest will start.
This device is a snap to set up and use, even though it displays resolutions of up to 640 by 480. In the event you have a newer phone that takes high resolution photos, you will not be able to use the Nokia SU-2 image viewer.
Maintain in mind, the 640 by 480 pixel photos will appear blocky on TV screens, no matter what you do. If your phone can send batches of photos, it is possible to create a slide show – even though Nokia claims it is possible to use sequentially beamed shots as well.
