Default Windows XP SP2 and Bluetooth - Not So Happy Together?
http://www.thepdaguy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=82

"A couple of weeks I ago I decided to install the Release Candidate of Windows XP SP2 on my main (and only at this stage) home PC. The installation was a breeze and it included an inbuilt Bluetooth stack. I thought that the integration of Bluetooth into the operating system would be a GOOD THING. Now I'm not so sure. The Bluetooth stack works. I can connect both Spike and Angelus to my PC and Activesync and Hotsync respectively. I can connect my cell phones and it seems quite reliable. However, what it doesn't have is support for networking..."

I was really hoping that SP2 would make Bluetooth as easy for Windows users to use as it is for Mac users, but it's sure not looking like that's the case. Yeah, yeah, I know for some of you Bluetooth works great. But for me, the differing implementations and confusing UI from different companies makes for a broken product experience. I want solid native support for Bluetooth in Windows XP, something that makes sense and works. Something with a a professionally developed user interface - something that I can actually understand.
