too many phone books!

[VGS]

Hi,

I have a V551 too which I baught from Rogers. After searching around the 
net around 2 years back, my conclusion was that a cable+software(windows 
only called mobile phone tools. Approx $50 ) was the only way to 
interact with the phone. Even after installing the software, I found 
that bluetooth would not work . Connection would take place but nothing 
else was possible. I had to use the cable. I felt that motorola might 
have deliberately messed around with the bluetooth as the software was 
available on many p2p sites . It may also be possible that Rogers has 
locked it so that the customers are forced to use the built in internet 
service to upload/download files instead of bluetooth. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Shinoj.
