The computing, communications, and consumer electronics industries have introduced many benefits to today’s consumers. Of course, they’ve also introduced many headaches, not the least of which is the necessity of connecting all these devices to each other, usually with a phalanx of cables and wires that are both annoyingly messy and mind-numbingly confusing. Wouldn’t it be great if you could connect your printer to your PC—or your PC to your PDA or your PDA to your phone line—without fumbling with the necessary cabling and worrying about whether you’re using the right type of connector? If you’d like to nix all that messy cabling, Bluetooth is for you. Bluetooth technology enables wireless connections between any number of computing, communications, and consumer electronics devices—and promises much more than that, including “smart” device recognition and synchronization. At its most basic, Bluetooth technology will usher in a world of wireless connections. Using short-range radio wave transmissions, Bluetooth technology will enable all your different electronic devices to connect to each other—without wires. without wires. |
