Well, the first limitation I ran up against with my Tungsten T3 is that
it doesn't act at all intuitively with Bluetooth file transfer. I'd
fully expect to be able to drop documents or photos or whatever on it
that way, but nope. It doesn't advertise itself that way. I mean, even
my *phone* can accept arbitrary files (so long as they're small
enough). Bleah. Looking forward to getting Blunt working on my 2100.
