Palm entered the scene with the first Palm OS device with built-in Bluetooth technology, the Tungsten T. The newest Tungsten feature is built-in Bluetooth. The Tungsten T is boosted to have the ability to exchange its information with similarly equipped cell-phones, printers and fax-machines. The transfer is accomplished by way of a new "send" command on the dropdown menu or a new icon that sits at top center of each address book record. The reality is that most people who own the T|T have found that can't acquire any Bluetooth toys to test or use this feature. The reality is there is not a lot of Bluetooth ready "toys" to use with it. View the complete list of Bluetooth products compatible with Bluetooth-enabled Palm handhelds.
