Can you use Wifi and Bluetooth at the same time?

Can you use WiFi and Bluetooth at the same time on an X30? An example would be using the WiFi for an internet messenging program and the Bluetooth to be connected to a keyboard...just wondering if this is a problem.

Yes you can use them at the same time.

I use a bluetooth keyboard while using the internet through wifi.

Thanks Silentknight. What kind of Bluetooth keyboard do you use?

@ SilentKnight - Kind of off topic, but if I disabled my WiFi Powersave mode on my X3i, would I still need your utility? Thanks!

802.11b and BT both use the same frequencies (2.4GHz). I suspect that dual radio PDAs that we are seeing now are smart enough to try and avoid the overlap but I'm not sure.

Either way - I've done some throughput testing on the Wifi with and without BT being active and seen no difference.

So in theory it's not the best idea. In practice, seems to work ok.
