Please expand on this comment. I have never used bluetooth, but I
understand it provides a wireless protocol for connecting hardware, and
that linking cell phones to PCs is one popular application. The part I
don't get is how a bluetooth link to a cell phone brings TCP/IP to a
Newton. File transfers I can understand, but not Internet service such as
is provided by slip/ppp.

I admit I have much to learn about my MP2100, but I am loving it!
