This is a growing trend among cellular service providors. Verizon Wireless recently did much the same thing with their acclaimed Motorola v710 Bluetooth-enabled phone. They decided anything which would allow you to transfer data to or from your phone without the use of their network poses a threat to their profits in regard to their Pix & Flix / TXT / Data / etc. packages. So, to fix the problem, they completely disabled many features of the Bluetooth subsystem, including OBEX (Object Exchange), and others.

I just spoke with Sprint Tier 2 support and with PalmOS tech support. They both confirmed that Bluetooth-to-computer is supported on the Treo 650 and the Sprint network.
So, I ordered the Treo 650. I'll try to post my experience with the new phone and computer at that time.

I almost hate to ask, but what has your experience been? My poor old handspring just died and I'm itching to get a 650 because I REALLY wanna bluetooth-synch w/ my desktop, but if it doesn't work, why bother? I can just get a cheapie handspring! -

Well, it has been a while since these messages. Has anybody found success with connecting to the internet on their computer using their Sprint Treo 650 as a modem through their bluetooth?
