I'm also interested in BT on the Newton, except my troubles lie with
Windows, not the Mac.
Sporadic connections. Crashing/reseting. Sometimes pairing, sometimes
not. Files can go one way but not the other. Etc.
Like you, I've tried all the wiki's instructions and searched the
internet for other information, trying all the various permutations
without success.
My 2000 upgraded has been acting very flakily of late; I've ordered a
2100 from J&K and we'll see if things improve.
This whole BT thing is frustrating--and, thus far, NOT all its cracked
up to be.
