Just read an article about bluetooth 3.0
what i understand, bluetooth (bt3) should be able to extend it's connection using wifi.
this way you should be able to send a mp3 file to someone on the otherside of your collegue (or something) with bluetooth > wifi-network > bluetooth phone
it's a quite promising theory.
only wonder how phones will handle all that many new bluetooth optional connections.
if you do a network sweep with your favorite bluejack program you just might end up with a bottomless list of bluetooth devices

High-speed Bluetooth
On 28 March 2006, the Bluetooth Special Interest Group announced its selection of the WiMedia Alliance Multi-Band Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MB-OFDM) version of UWB for integration with current Bluetooth wireless technology.
UWB integration will create a version of Bluetooth wireless technology with a high-speed/high-data-rate option. This new version of Bluetooth technology will meet the high-speed demands of synchronizing and transferring large amounts of data, as well as enabling high-quality video and audio applications for portable devices, multi-media projectors and television sets, and wireless VOIP.
At the same time, Bluetooth technology will continue catering to the needs of very low power applications such as mice, keyboards, and mono headsets, enabling devices to select the most appropriate physical radio for the application requirements, thereby offering the best of both worlds.
Bluetooth 3.0
The next version of Bluetooth after v2.1, code-named Seattle (the version number of which is TBD) has many of the same features, but is most notable for plans to adopt ultra-wideband (UWB) radio technology. This will allow Bluetooth use over UWB radio, enabling very fast data transfers of up to 480 Mbit/s, while building on the very low-power idle modes of Bluetooth.
Its quite simple. Some will support Ultra low power (WiBree; Nokias competing version). Some will support the UWB version IF they go forward. Some will be backwards compatible. Read the manual on said future phones/pda's/laptops that support specific or all versions of said (tentative) BT v3.0
They'll think of something.
same sort of worries began prior to late 2004 when BT v2.0+EDR began ... but that was sorted very simply.
