Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions Cell phones...??

Loosely speaking, quite a few -- though in modern terms they're knows as hijacked threads.

You know the old game of telephone, where somone tells a sentence to the person next to them and then that person passes it on, and by the time the sentence makes it to the last person it's very different from what the first person said?

Speaking of hijacked threads and mutations of ideas (in more than one way- ha.), I'm writing a paper dealing with that (memetics in general) in the background as I type this.

I had another bit on this typed, but then I decided I wouldn't hijack this more and possibly scare/bore you guys with the pseudo-biology involved.

Correct, pmb...also, the transmissions are encrypted, giving some semblence of security.

You can get Bluetooth keyboards and printers. Some PDA's are Bluetooth enabled. I believe Chrysler (or Mercedes?) is going have Bluetooth in some of their vehicles, which will allow ppl with Bluetooth cellphones to connect to the car stereo system and allow handsfree communication.

I've seen ppl use Bluetooth to link their PDA to a cell phone, and then connect to the internet thru the cellphone. Better than trying to surf on a cellphone screen.

Like a lot of technologies, it hasn't quite lived up to it's hype. Yet.

Heh, sorry for the "off-topic" nature...but I was able to get an insightful answer. So that worked out well. =) Thanks for the info!
