bluetooth 1.1, 1.2, 2.0...

[Robson]

if this has been posted, apologies in advance and appreciate it if the thread link can be posted. if not...

been doing some browsing as i'm considering what ppc to buy in place of my ol'trusty xda2 running on wm2005. saw a lot of units, there's the atom, prophet, the upcoming muse, etc...

would like to ask about bluetooth. if a set has a built-in version 1.2 for bt; does this automatically mean it supports a2dp (for bt stereo)? read articles which seem to say that 1.2 does support a2dp...and read some articles which were downright confusing.

or would this fall under version 2.0?

cheers

did some more browsing and came upon this...looks like i answered my own question :D

"Unfortunantly the version of bluetooth that is installed into the 650 handset is 1.1 and this does not support data transfer of music through bluetooth. You would need version 1.2 to do this. Quote from palmone data sheet; A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution: playing music wirelessly. This is Bluetooth 1.2, and the Treo 650 smartphone is Bluetooth 1.1)"

but feel free to correct me anytime

cheers

BlueAngel has BT 1.1, but has A2DP profile.

I have a Blue Anggel (siemens sx66) but it doesnt seem to have the a2dp profile, i have recently upgraded the btooth stack and am on:
1.0.0 build 3900

to me this reads that i seem to have downgraded it? shouldnt it be at least 1.2.0 build xxxx?

im trying to find a different stack now, i want my music....

thanks...
