    Bluetooth

    I'm looking to use bluetooth to send text information to mobile devices in a certain radius. I have a bluetooth dongle but I am finding it difficult to interface with it using J2ME. Anyone done anything like this?

    realistically its a problem without MIDP 2.0 implementation and like no one got it.

      No I mean using J2ME (javax.microedition, javax.comm, javax.bluetooth) to interface with a dongle on a PC to discover bluetooth devices (mob phones, PDA). The devices dont need J2ME on them. Something like the TDK BlueAlert but done in Java.

        so devices do not need J2ME but you want to program it using J2ME - what the hell you gonna run on device then to support your J2ME coded protocol? the interfaces you referred to (AFAIK) are present in J2ME 2.0 - more correctly referred to as MIDP 2.0 - java.sun.com/products/midp/

        manufacturers that claim to support it in _shipping_ products are next to none and God knows how many of them actually ship fully compatible product - with bluetooth support for example. Supposedly new P900 phone has got it.

          Dongle on PC on Java >> Bluetooth compatible phone.

          I need to know how I can talk to the Dongle using Java. The dongle will then find bluetooth devices.

              Or in other words : "I can't answer that question, so that I will do is bulltulip my way out of it."

              Look, if you haven't got anything decent to say be quiet. Do me a favour and go and obtain a GSCE in English you self-righteous bastard.
