K700i Bluetooth & File Access Question

Hey all,

I have a K700i and I use the camera fairly frequently. At the moment, I'm
using infra-red to transfer images from phone to PC. I've just bought a new
motherboard which has a nice Bluetooth slot for me to plug a card into, so
I'm considering getting one.

The problem I have with infra-red is that I have to send each picture
individually to windows, and then accept each send, and so on. With over
300 pics, it is far too tedious, so most of my pics stay on the phone :/

My question is: with Bluetooth, can I browse the phone like a removable
disk (as I do with my digicam) in XP? Or will I still face the same issue
of sending pics one by one?

Thanks for any help,

You only get that with a non-Microsoft Bluetooth stack (as supplied by the
hardware vendor). Bluetooth support in SP2 is more limited.

FMA does work with the Microsoft SP2 Bluetooth stack.

The Microsoft guide for the Z600 may give you some insight on the K700
