Don't forget, free Internet.
Unless your services forces you to pay for extra internet service, which would suck for you.

just because this seems to be the thread for it. . . i figured i'd bring up the question here since i haven't read any tech magazines that have sufficiently satisfied my question, so maybe someone here can.
what in the hell is bluetooth anyways? i mean. . .what's it used for that other standard products could do just as fine on their own? what's it do exactly? i know that it has something to do with wireless radio (like 802.11b), but i don't know what kind of uses the devices it's put into are used for. remote control of some sort? wireless networking? what?

It allows all sort of devices to communicate and exchange stuff with eatchother, great for computers and cellphones. I can type a SMS on the computer keyboard, send it to the phone and away it goes.
Also wireless headsets with bluetooth is nice.
My pal has a bluetooth GPS that I can't wait to try out.

How fast is Bluetooth in terms of the Internet anyway? Max bandwidth possible (on paper, like 802.11b is 11M/s, 802.11g is 54M/s, etc)?

Dunno but quite slow, a 10mb file took ~2m to transfer
