every time I tell it to discover devices, it comes up blank and no other
devices can discover the newton. currently there are 2 other devices-a
belkin usb dongle and a nokia 7600, which can both see eachother fine.

but for some reason, if you go to in/out and tell it to recieve
btobex and
tell a computer to send a file, the computer will pick up the newton and
will be able to send it, so the bluetooth is definitly working....

has anyone got any ideas of what to try next to narrow the problem down?

to make the Newton to be discovered from other bluetooth devices do
as below:

  - open bluetooth setup on your desktop (or mobile or etc) and start
searching
  - start the bluetooth receving mode on your MessagePad
  - at this point every bluetooth enabled device will discover your
Messagepad
  - open bluetooth setup and initiate pairing from the MP sending the
preferred PIN to the desktop

Note that pairing won't take place when initiating a PIN from the
desktop.
