Its a security issue. Unlike nokia's which is our target for bluejacking, you have to set the phone to discoverable in order for you to pair.

security issue? what so when we are on discoverable anyone can access our phone without us knowing??! i dont think so, well i hope not anyway. the fact that you can leave bt on is soo much better.. discoverable for 3 min. wahooo, not, what if you want to send stuff back nd forth for a period of time in a classroom or in a meeting, you allways have to tell them to turn it on, it's pants.

@dazbradbury: the whole idea about pairing is to do so with units you trust. Simply pair your friends and you can connect with them amayw.

From the standby screen press the option button and choose receive item. This temporarily activates BT and IR.
Thanks! That works well and with the other tip to make it shortcut one I now have more or less what I want. However for it to work I found you have to have Bluetooth set to "automatic" mode. If it's set to "off" it will just tell you it's off an only switch on infrared.
As for why, that's because bluetooth eats the battery and I get much better standby/talk time with it off and turn on only when needed. On top of that I find the flashing blue light to be a bit annoying. I rather wish I could disable both of the lights.

of course you wouldn't want others prying (sending/dialing) via BT on your phone without you knowing it. once you've paired anyway, you can use your BT connection whenever you like.
