Hope you all follow the General forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=256 ) here at XDA-Developers ;)

If you don’t or have otherwise missed my article and have wondered why the Dial-Up Networking Bluetooth profile isn’t contained by AKU3, what about the new Network Access Profile, where infrared support is gone etc., make sure you check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282780

DUN = GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA - are they also outdated? ;)

UPDATE (03/16/2007): now, with the brand new, 10.4.9 Mac OS X version, AKU3 can be used for dial-up. Please see THIS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1172264&postcount=7) for more info. Also, there's a tutorial on making AKU3 dial-up work under Unix / Linux HERE (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1138382&postcount=6).

UPDATE (04/19/2007): the Microsoft WM folks have just published an article (http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2007/04/17/why-did-we-remove-bluetooth-dun.aspx) on the PAN vs DUN issue. It's HIGHLY recommended. Also, you may want to check out PPCT (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=434508) and Just Another Mobile Monday (http://justanothermobilemonday.com/Wordpress/2007/04/18/windows-mobile-team-blog-why-did-we-remove-bluetooth-dun/).

Problem fixed; see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1400709

Let me get the instructions right:

Just copy the file: "WM5AKU3WM6DUNReEnableRegImp" (2.61 Kb) to the Windows Folder of the Universal and soft reset.

No need for example for Resco Registry Editor to run it???

Thanks for posting here.
