As far as I know the only way to sync your iPhone is via the Dock Connector, not Bluetooth. At the moment BT is only good for pairing with an earpiece, not data transfer.

The only way to sync it is through USB.

Although the iPhone will pair with a computer, there are no services available.

At this point in time, the only devices that work are headsets.

You can pair your iPhone with some car GPS navigations systems, such as the Garmin Nuvi 660. Works great!

So I can't pair it with the new Apple wireless keyboards? Has anyone tried/been able to do this? Thanks!

I've heard that some GPS pucks will sync with the iphone via bluetooth. Anyone had a good experience with this?

So you can't even use it to pair with a computer to send pictures? Bizarre. I guess they really want you to email whenever possible.

I think they will expand future bluetooth functionality with a firmware update at some point.

All it would require is adding more bluetooth profiles.

You know what apple are like they are probably working on their own stereo headset GPS reciever etc.. so don't want to add it unti, they can make more money off you.
