Hi all....just got a T610 and it is the first phone I have owned with bluetooth. I just wanted to know from all you bluetooth veterans...what are the best things to use bluetooth for...and has it proved to be really useful? What do you use it for most??
Cheers in advance.

Except for syncing and connecting a computer to the internet with GPRS I mainly use the SE phone as a remote control for the computer.
It works perfectly when watching movies from the computer on the TV.
Also you can get the Winamp mp3-list on your phone so you can change the song playing on the computer from your phone, and this works perfectly in my entire flat.
For this to work you'll need bluetooth on the computer though (quite cheap) and this program:

If you drive a car or any vehicle then a BT headset is ideal. I have two phones I use every day a T68i and a P800. The T68i is in the car kit ( none BT kit ) and the P800 is in the holder next to it. I use the BT with my P800 as this is used for private calls where as the T68i is buissines calls about bookings and so on. I use a dashmount bracket which has been modified to except both the T68i SE holder and the P800 SE holder, and as they both use the same system cable, should my headset go flat I can swap the cable from one holder to the other, while the headset is charging.

Possibly the strangest, but the one I like the most - even if it is the least useful! - function of BT is to pair with my BT camera so that I can send pics from the camera to the phone. The quality is WAY higher than that of the inbuilt camera.
I also have a BT printer, which is useful for printing out contacts and stuff in case you need hard copy.
Most usefully, though, it being able to connect my iPAQ handheld to it and have the T610 as a cable-free BT modem. You can also do this with a laptop.

I still have a t68 at the moment (after taking my Voda Live T610 back last week - waiting for it on Orange now) but i have found bluetooth to be fantastic and now I wouldn't buy a phone without it.
I use a bluetooth personal handsfree kit (Jabra BT200) pretty much everyday - it's very useful for the car and much cheaper than a fully installed car kit.
I also use bluetooth to connect with my pda for checking e-mails, bowsing web etc. which is much more practical than IR since i don't have to keep the pda flat on the desk pointing at my phone and can actually hold it comfortably in my hand (my phone of course can still be in my pocket).
I also use bluetooth to easily transfer pictures to and from PC -this can be great for parties - go around taking snaps and send them to the PC which can be on a slideshow - need to make sure your slideshow software auto refreshes when new pictures are added to the directory though. Can also sync contacts etc. with PC.

If you've got a bit of spare cash, go and get yourself a Parrot CK3000 (got mine for £140) bluetooth carkit - it's a hardwired - and pretty simple to install - I did it with no knowledge at all about car audio.
