That would be nice, Also note that the automatic bluetooth wakeup works for certain bluetooth programs on the ppc but not everything. As a test I turned bluetooth off then I opened a bluetooth chat program and sure enough bluetooth was turned on. When I closed the program bluetooth cut off. It worked this way for mapping programs that I had setup to use bluetooth gps. I always leave bluetooth on as the current draw in stanby mode is next to nothing, but it would be nice for the ppc to turn on bluetooth if you have a bluetooth modem connection already setup.

AFAIK, the bluetooth protocol does this automatically as long as you don't allow it to search or be searched. Bluetooth turns the radio down to the lowest possible level to maintain connection. If it is not connected, i recon it turns it almost completely down...
