Multiple Connections?

to explicitly disconnect my BT headset just to bring up a web page or two.

Is this a limitation of my particular phone (nokia 3650) or is this a
limitation of BT phones in general?

I belief it's the phone. bluetooth is supposingly able to connect up to a few devices at the same time.... more info, check this webby... http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/bluetooth1.htm

thanks for the info

Actually, looking from developers' position, BT phones have not 1 BT socket, but multiple. Though, every symbian application before even trying to establish a connection, tries to find out if any of the sockets is already used. If at least ONE of all the sockets is used, it returns that connection may not be established. If we would remove that check, the application would still force the connection to the same default socket, thus it would fail (nothing would happen). I REALLY think java phones also MAY NOT support multiple BT connections unless they are issued by a remote software (not by the phone).

good work
thnx
