My Insights
I own a Palm TX (OS5) and a Motorola L6. Both devices are Bluetooth devices. One day I was fidgeting with my buddy’s Pocket PC which is also Bluetooth enabled. His Pocket PC had an application called “Bluetooth File Explorer” or something like that. I was able to connect to my Motorola phone using his Pocket PC and was able to browse the contents of my phone such as wallpapers and ringtones.
I got jealous and wanted to be able to do that with my Palm – after all it’s just another OS right? It turns out that after hours of searching the internet, I came up with nothing. The closest thing I found was Softick’s Bluetooth commander. But since I didn’t want to spend any money, I kept looking.
In the end, my make-shift solution is to send each individual picture / ringtone to my Palm Device using Bluetooth and then using a freeware called FileZ, send it to another phone if needed. This sux but at least I can accomplish what I want – exchange cool ringtones with friends.
If anyone else has run into a similar problem, please let me know if you have a better solution for exchanging ringtones / images / videos with friends using Bluetooth enabled handheld devices only (Palm & Phones)
