iPhone Bluetooth Does Nothing But CallsRemember way back in 2004, when Verizon Wireless introduced Motorola's V710 with "crippled" Bluetooth? Headset pairing worked, but there were no file-transfer options and other extended features. People literally sued in protest. Well, as you probably know, the scales of justice never tipped. In the past three years, most Bluetooth phones sold by carriers in the US have been "crippled" in that sense, including the iPhone: • It can't transfer files to a PC, or appear on a desktop for drag- and-drop file juggling.
• It can't send a photo to a Bluetooth printer.• It can't stream audio via Bluetooth to a compatible speaker system or headset. (Video is out of the question.)
