Hi Ed,
The OS provides the 3 things you wanna do for you, i.e. the Bluetooth
software in Mac OS X will find devices, identify the device and the
"Bluetooth File Exchange" program can be used to send and receive
files over a Bluetooth connection.
So if the OS does it for you, waddya have to do? Well once the device
has been paired with your Mac it will create a new serial port, then
simply interact with the device over serial. There are several phone
packages out there and some written in RB.
However if you are lucky it may work with Apple's iSync, I know Sony
Ericsson phones do so (part of the reason why I only buy SE
nowadays). If it does, then the Mac can sync your address book,
calendar... blah blah blah with the phone.
I hope this helps and have a great warm weekend :)

Hi,
I've searched the RBNUG list archives, the MBS site, and others and
can
not find if anyone has either written a Bluetooth PlugIn or some RB
example code to:
a) find devices
b) identify a device
c) send/receive files
Any assistance appreciated.
(I have a new ZTE F850 3G mobile with Bluetooth and the supplied
software to transfer contacts/messages/multiledia etc is always PC. I
want to develop a Mac OS X version).
Mahalo & Aloha,
Sam Rowlands
