Bluetooth serial port plug

If THIS

Had the connector like an SPV/E100 on the bottom and not the serial connector, do you think it would work as a plug in bluetooth module to allow Activesynching, and passthru internet connections, although obviously not headphones or bluejacking.

As you can see:

The (F2M01) Serial Port Plug integrates a Bluetooth module in very dense packing. A class 1 Bluetooth solution is used offering a nominal range of approximately 100m. No external drivers are needed to use the plug. A user-friendly Windows application is included that can be used to configure the plug to suit your requirements.

So it's not reliant on anything on the phone at all.

No, by the sounds of it it's reliant on Windows!

Sorry didn't explain that, the Windows reliant software is to configure this thing before you plug it into whatever.

You'd need to phone to act as host master, which it doesn't. Both devices would be waiting for the other to do something!

I thought the original SPV was a host master, and it was only the C500 which was a slave?

Also this thing is designed to plug into things like printers, plotters and all manner of serial controlled machinery, surely they're not host masters?

I think it takes the serial signal and converts it all by itself. I've mailed them but as it's a Sunday we'll have to wait.
