Bluetooth 3.0 is in the house, now with more oomph
Are you happy with your current Bluetooth experience, but aching to give it a little kick in the pants? Fret not because Bluetooth 3.0 is here right on schedule and it’s way faster than its predecessors. With the 802.11 radio Protocol Adaption Layer, transfer speeds can hit up to 24 megabits per second. If that isn’t impressive or means little to you, Bluetooth 2.0 transferred data at speeds of 2 to 3 megabits per second. Almost miraculously, the increase in speed doesn’t mean extra battery drain. On the contrary, Bluetooth 3.0 includes power-saving controls built in. Transferring files via Bluetooth should no longer be a burden or hassle — gone are the days of using Bluetooth file transfers as a last resort for large or bulk files. When will it become widely available? The process has already begun, but the technology really won’t be hitting consumers for another nine to twelve months. Patience, young grasshoppers.
about time! Such a bore transfering bluetooth to bluetooth!
Well it’s not time yet…
Here’s hoping the BlackBerry Driftwood has BT 3.0
$10 says the June iPhone refresh will have it.
@Eric, I bet you back $10 of fake internet money that it won’t. I’d find this highly unlikely as 3.0 is just too new. I’m sure the final HW specs were signed off on months ago.
Wow can’t wait for it to be launched…

How about synching your iPhone with your Mac or PC through Bluetooth, without those lousy wires?
