Default Bluejacking(????)

http://www.bluejackq.com/

Seems to me this is exactly what Bluetooth does *not* need to have happening right about now.....or any time.

Blue Jacking..LOL... Here's something for those of us who find themselves standing in the bankline with serveral attractive young trendy type females. Do a search looking for other bluetooth devices, and send out a few hellos and see if any "Hotties" pull out there phones with a confused "what the hell" look. If so, start a text conversation, you would be amazed at where things might lead...

Good Bluejacking gentlemen

ahhh..spoken like a person who only see technology as a way to themselves disconnected from the real world. Not another fun social resource. Relax my friend, have fun...women like men who have brains as much as they do like men with great bodies, dashing good looks, and a sports car (if you have all of the above you get bonus points

He he he, this is so funny. Can this work on a PDA sending a contact to another phone? My phone isnt bluetooth but my PDA is. This is so funny!

No dice gentlemen...seems the bluetooth manager, and business card exchange and notes feature on the pocket pc don't like each other. Only way to send a note is to IR it to another device. I think there is a share/freeware program on download.com which allow you to create a quick and dirty PAN than can send texted and possible images to other Bluetoothed devices including wireless phones via text or obex transfer...will play with it and see what I can get it to do.

PS...GO AND PICK UP A T616/610 ASAP..they are basically giving them away and the fun you will have with it besides being constantly connected for work and school is WELL WORTH IT!!!

Well, this is not a problem with Bluetooth really. If you have a door and don't lock it, is it a problem with the lock?

These people are silly enough to go around with Bluetooth ON and DISCOVERABLE all the time. Most of them are probably Nokia users, because Sony Ericsson mobile phones turn discoverable off after one minute.

Usually a device should be discoverable only during the time you want to pair it with another device, or exchange information (like cards and appointments).

I once was in a workshop and did a find... That was a telecommunication event and I found a few Bluetooth mobile phones. I wonder how many would accept a DUN (Dial Up) connection without asking for permission...

Oh good grief..., get a life.

Of course it's not a problem *with* BT. But it may become a problem *for* BT if enough people have it happen, and are offended by the 'invasion'.

You'd better hope that none of the "hotties" in line at the bank are tech savvy and know what you're doing to connect to their phone, or they might be a little creeped out. Heck they might be creeped out anyway!

Brains are a necessity, but I deduct points for sports cars; boys who have them tend to care more about their cars then about the people in their lives....
