Hi all, am probably clutching at straws here but does anyone know of a way to view the camera (live) from a bluetooth enabled phone via a PDA (Hx4700).
I don't mean to transfer files between the devices.
If I pair my Nokia 6680 with my 4700 I would like to be able to use the PDA as the view finder for the camera on the phone ? Hope this makes sense.

Any suggestions or is this just not going to happen ?

As far as I know this is not possible. You would need a phone that 'streamed' its camera view via bluetooth, and I'm not aware of any phone that does this.

Thanks for the replies, I didn't think it was possible but it never hurts to ask .
