I just renewed my contract with Tmobile, and found it simply impossible to get a Sony Ericsson T610 and still be able to keep my current phone number, and not spend $300 on the thing. Therefore, I settled on a Moto T722i that does everything I wanted except bluetooth. Is there an adapter that can plug into your phone and offer bluetooth? If not, does anyone know if they are in the works? I mean, those USB bluetooth adapters are cheap as hell. Plus, whoever makes/will make this type of an adapter would surely sell TONS of 'em.

you can buy them for some phones, but I believe they work only for use with a headset. They don't enable the full suite of communications with computers.

hmm, this seems rather stupid to me. Shouldn't they be able to get true bluetooth function out of an adapter?

Is it even possible?
