BT between SMT5600/SP3i & PDA?

[Guest Colorin]

I am interested in purchasing either a SMT5600 or SP3i. I like the SMT5600 because it's dirt cheap, but the lack of a joystick is bad for games. The SP3i is nice because it has a joystick (although I've read bad things about it), but it's expensive. I also intend to buy a new Dell Axim and ABSOLUTELY need to make sure that I can transfer files via BT between the two. I've read that there is no OBEX support in the SMT5600 to do a file-transfer to the PDA, is this true? Will that Smart Explorer program get around this somehow? If not does the SP3i support OBEX file transfer via BT to a PDA? I read that it did. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hi Colorin!

I have an Axim X5 with Billionton BT CF card and an I-mate SP3.

I can send files from sp3 to Axim without any problems,but on the opposite I can't.

So i can't send files from Axim to Sp3.

There is another person with the same problem here

and I've posted a topic here

But at the moment I didn't receive any suggestions... :cry:

But i want to resolve this problem...

*SIGH* That's what I thought, from what I understand the HTC Typhoon and it's variants don't have OBEX file transfer via BT. Although I have read some reviews that say the SMT5600 has it, although I've come not to trust reviews overly much. :lol: I do understand that SP3i does have this (upgraded feature) but a lot of people seem to be having problems with the SP3i. Hopefully someone on here can answer our question though, if I here anything elsewhere I'll let you know.

The problem for me is only with Axim....

With PC and the others phones I have in my home I have no problem in sending and receiving files.The only problem is sending files from PPC to SP3.....

However I suggest you to buy the SP3i...

I hope there is a way to send files with PPC also...
