Does anyone know if there is a way to......for lack of a better description......use the xoom like I use my $50 bluetooth headset when its paired to my EVO.I think you would call it ....using my xoom as a bluetooth gateway from my EVO.

Pairing with the phone only works for data...

In other words, can I make and receive calls with my wifi xoom via bluetooth to my EVO.

I can do it with a headset from the EVO....my car stereo from the EVO.....why not the xoom.??..it has a mic??

Why not right? Plug in the phone when you get home and are using your tablet only and not want to be bothered with carying my phone around.

Any thoughts on this??

get a sip client/sip account like sipdroid, and link it to your google voice account, and you can make all the calls you want via wifi..
There are threads all over xda about it, or do a google search...

And this works for a WIFI only Xoom

This will work for a wifi only xoom???

This is VOIP though......am i forwarding my cell phone calls to google voice and then to sip droid to my xoom.....essentially? Seems like the party on the other end would wait for an eternity of rings.

I think this whole issue has something to do with the bluetooth stack on android honeycomb. Hopefully they will update it to include one of the most popular (if not THE most popular) android phone....THE EVO...lol
