I don't know... do you think the XDA III can be better than this? Voice Command through a Bluetooth Headset is sounding pretty good.

I would love to try HP's new BT stack on my I-Mate :)

That's EXACTLY what I expect from iMATE SE update. Full BT stack. Or at least, use hacked one from HP in XDA2 :D

Yeah, I don't like the antenna either.
I'm getting pretty anxious for a new i-mate WM2003SE ROM. I hope they add Voice Tag dialing support so you can use the Bluetooth Headset to initiate a call. It sounds like the H6300 does not have that capability, although it does have the ability to send system audio to the Bluetooth headset.

It looks like the MMS app on the H6300 is integrated with Inbox too, but the New MMS dialog looks just like the Arcsoft MMS Composer dialog for creating MMS messages. I wonder if there's a new version of MMS composer that integrates fully with the Pocket PC Inbox! Hopefully we'll get that on the XDA II soon too!

I WANT AUDIO THROUGH BLUETOOTH!!!!

That's the only thing that I hate about the XDA II... I'm tired down.

I don't mind the crappy quality, I was used to it with my other PPC.

I wonder, what BT stuck is using? MS or Widcomm? :shock: :shock: :roll: :roll:

Looks like Widcomm's new software that supports Phone Edition devices. It's cool how you can turn on headset support for just the phone, just the system audio/microphone or both. But I still wish I could use the buttons on the Bluetooth headset to activate Voice Tags or something. Sounds like all they can do with the H6300 is Accepting and Ending a call.

Calling all software engineers:

Someone, please get a hold of this BT Stack and backwards engineer it for the XDA II.

I'll donate $20US to whoever does this. I'm sure many more are willing to donate some money for a good cause.

not sure about which version the new hp will use but some people here seem to have the stack working on their devices
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=9927&highlight=widcomm

for me to really wish for audio to headset it would require
1 stereo (mono music is not for me)
2 quality which dident make it all sound like aliens from beyond the sun that i pick up on my HAM :P

Rudegar,
Those are PC Bluetooth software... We're looking for the new Pocket PC Bluetooth Stack.

The only reason I want Audio through Bluetooth is for games and movies.

Isn't that the case with this new BT stack? :roll:

I just saw this article on STEREO BT! http://mobilemag.com/content/100/104/C3048/
--now that would be GREAAAT!
...so I'm sure, IS there no way to listen to MP3's on the xda2 thru BT now??
The HP is not MS Mobile SE, plus the MPx is coming soon, I hope, so I'll wait for that... :shock:
