well, the price is justified if Medevil really intends to purchase a new bluetooth stack to use instead of iphone´s native crapy one...
Nothing wrong with what has been implemented in the iPhone, the profiles that are missing have been left out on purpose. I use my iPhone 3G with a Nokia CK-15W BT carkit and the phone tranfers the full range of info including BT name, contact list, battery level, reception quality and operator name, just like my V640i and the connection is very stable. It doesn't work with voice dialing but then neither does my wife's Samsung.
BTW, what are the chances of Apple joining two iPhones together with a hinge to make a netbook? There's heaps of speculation about such a device. If it was the size of the current iPhone I would probably buy it.
I don't see Apple changing the current iPhone much this year, probably just more memory, range of colours and lower price.

OK.....i need advice. Ive read and read and i still cant decide what to do. I have a locked 3g iphone (never been jailbroken ?) and running 2.1 firmware. At the moment i have no intention of sim unlocking it, but i would like to jailbreak it. My question is, can i download a 2.2 ipsw and just shift/restore in itunes, is it as easy as that ? and then jailbreak the 2.2 firmware, i dont want to upgrade to 2.2.1 at the moment. I really dont want to end up damaging the phone.
Thanks in advance again

well, like it is, it does not support a2dp and other advanced bt profiles at all...the bt stack needs to be updated, by Apple, or 3rd party...that was my point.

Hi Lemmy
Yep, you'll be perfectly safe doing that. The latest version of QuickPwn should be backwards compatible with 2.2

Thanks for that Ryan

Thanks again Craig

Yep, just hold shift and click restore, and you'll be able to select the firmware. Good to make sure you've done a 'Backup' first.
