Bluetooth sync is freaking awesome
One of the goals behind my getting the Palm Tungsten T was that I wanted to do wireless hotsyncing with my iMac and PCs using Bluetooth. However, out of the box, this doesn't actually work, and I had to do some research to figure out how to set it up. Basically, what it boils down to is that you need to create a new Connection in the Communications section of Prefs on the Palm device, set it to use Bluetooth to connect to a Trusted PC, and then select that new Connection profile in Hotsync. Voila! It works, and it works well. Now I've got my Tungsten syncing up nicely on the iMac, and I'll test it on the IBM ThinkPad T4x I'm using this weekend. Good stuff.
