whats the use? ok im not an expert so forgive me if iam wrong so I can understand what bluejack really is.

You can send business card by using your contact so do not need any bluejack software right?

I thought bluejack can bypass confirmation. coz I tried p910 sman bluejack to my 6600nokia but it still ask if i will accept it or not.

No use just amusing to some.

Some phones auto accept and some don't. More and more recent phones don't auto accept anymore even for business cards

Bluejack is a hi-tech way of making someone surprised. You could also use a toy-bomb instead. For kids only.

@ ersatz0906 bluejack is fun, in an innocently evil kinda way. It was all started by a fellow known as ajack and this is how it all started...

Ajack wrote on 16 December 2002 -
" I was in the bank today and was waiting for my number to be called as there was many people in the bank. Out of boredom, I did a Bluetooth discovery to see if there was any other Bluetooth device around. A name appeared on my screen "Nokia 7650" which obviously means some poor Nokia users has his Bluetooth switched on.

I looked around and didn't see anybody around me using that brick... I mean Nokia 7650. I then proceeded to create a new contact in my phone which had all it's fields empty except for the first name which I gladly filled with "Buy Ericsson!" and made my R520 send that business card to the Nokia 7650 and a guy a few feet away from me suddenly had his 7650 making obscene noises in the bank. He took out his 7650 and started looking at his phone (and looking lost at the same time).

I couldn't contain myself and left the bank. Thought I'd share this story with all.

Maybe we should do this more often in public. "

and bluejacking was born. It was only later that it would thus be called...

Some amusing messages to send

at the restaurant - "I've spat in your food"

at the supermarket - "Hmmmm, nice pear"

in a traffic queue - "Hey, your back tyre is flat"

You can also have some fun renaming your device. Mine is set to Airbus A330. So anyone doing a search starts looking up
