I think the point David was trying to make is that HP didn't spend much time getting this device right. They obviously threw it together, didn't test, didn't customize. As a result, it's much less than it could be. There are battery problems, CF Card problems, wireless problems, no IR, the operating system isn't tuned to the hardware, and in general, the lack of attention by HP shows.

So, yes, you can use BT, but if that's what they wanted, why not set it up? Why have the IR interface but no IR hardware?

I'm on my third 21x because the previous 2 failed. I'm not bitter, I'm just done with HP. Compared to the other 7 PDAs I have owned, this is the worst. Not bitter, just fact. HP didn't take any time with this one.
