Orange SPV and bluetooth

[rzanology]

I'm thinking about upgrading from my t68i to the spv, but I'm a heavy bluetooth user. I MUST be able to use my bluetooth headset, can the spv support those SD bluetooth cards? If not does anyone know of any other smartphone using pocket pc 2002 that will be coming out this summer or earlier?

err, do you mean pocketpc2002 or smartphone2002 ?

the spv doesn't have bluetooth, a.f.a.i.k., and it currently does not support bluetooth sd cards either. but i've read about a smartphone 2002 update that includes bluetooth drivers, might have been smartphone2003.

anyways, there would also be problems with an sd card and a bluetooth headset. since the data would first go to the OS, then to the phone, it could be that there would be a very long delay, making speech almost impossible. but again, this is what i've picked up all over the web.

the only other smartphone 2002 operated phone that's due out is the mitac 8380

unfortunately, it's a foldable phone which i just don't like.
