About Bluetooth Wireless Technology

Bluetooth wireless technology provides short range wireless communication exchange over a distance of about 30 feet without requiring a physical connection.

Unlike infrared, you don't need to line up the devices to beam information using Bluetooth. If the devices are within a range of one another, you can exchange information between them, even if they are located in different rooms.

Your i730 allows you to beam files, appointments, tasks, and contact cards between common devices or you can use Bluetooth wireless technology enabled peripherals to integrate with your device.

Bluetooth Service Profiles

Actually, the Bluetooth wireless technology specification is a protocol that describes how the short-range wireless technology works, whereas individual profiles describe the services supported by individual devices like your i730. Profiles reduce the chance that different devices will not work together.

Your i730 supports the following profile services:

•SDAP (Service Discovery Application Profile)

•FTP (File Transfer profile)

•GAP (Generic Access profile)

•HFP (Hands Free profile)

•HSP (Headset profile – Note: stereo headset profile not supported)
