Bluetooth and iPhone: Not Exactly Best Friends Yet
See this cell phone uploading pictures to this Bluetooth-friendly Parrot digital picture frame? See how easy it looks? It really is that easy, too. With your ordinary basic Bluetooth cell phone, you can perform magic, just like this, with a few buttons and your thumb. Easy.
However, if you try to do this with your new iPhone, it’s not gonna happen.
The iPhone does a lot of cool stuff, but transferring images to the cool Parrot frame isn’t one of them.
In fact, the iPhone isn’t particularly Bluetooth-friendly at all.
Vincent Nguyen, of My I Tablet.com, doesn’t have many compliments for the new iPhone. He even posts a list of things iPhone supports, and things iPhone doesn’t support. Guess which list is longer?
