it was well documented as not being able to...That is pretty pathetic. It amazes me the amount of really basic stuff the iPhone has left out.
that's what i think as well, also, to try and stop some of the bluetooth viruses going round (obviously they would need to be coded for the iPhone, but there are many people that have written both official and unofficial apps for the iPhone)The main reason why I don't think Apple will implement file transferring over buletooth is because eventually somebody will find an exploit enabling people to transfer music files held on the iPhone's iPod and this will spread piracy... SO NO....
Now if you bought the iPhone and didn't do your research and you're upset that you can't send pics through bluetooth then it's your own damn fault... and we'd be calling YOU pathetic!
Only the iPhone can not do this. Why would some-one expect the iPhone not to be able to do what most dumb phones can do? Did Apple ad it to their adds?
Imagine the add : Here it is, the only phone that can beat the iphone... The iPhone 3G! Now with 3G and GPS.
In really fast voice:
Can not do turn by turn navigation, MMS, cut and paste, forward text messages, send pictures via bluetooth, cant do A2DP, cant be used to connect your tomtom to the internet, cant do voice dailing, with or without bluetooth and many other things your sony erricson walkman phone can do.

How about this:
The iPhone 3g! Now with 3G and GPS. If you're too stupid to spend 5 minutes researching what it cannot do, it's your own stupid fault!

If you buy an iPhone its your own stupid fault? Probably.

What??? show me the "well documented" not being able to send pics via bluetooth.
I'm sorry you're not pleased with your purchase... that is if you have an iPhone, but it's not like people don't know ahead of time (IF THEY READ) what all the phone can/can't do. The cool thing to me is the fact that certain things become available through firmware upgrades! Sure it'd be great if the iPhone did everything under the sun when it first came out but hey, you gotta pick your poison and roll with the punches! Now if you bought the iPhone and didn't do your research and you're upset that you can't send pics through bluetooth then it's your own damn fault... and we'd be calling YOU pathetic!
Umm thanks for your post. I guess I'm pathetic for wanting to send/receive pictures via bluetooth on my Bluetooth Enabled iPhone with built in camera.
It doesn't say anywhere on Apple's site that it can't do this.
When did I say I wasn't pleased with my purchase? I love my iPhone it's bloody marvellous and I'm sure Apple will add this, and other requested features at some point in the not too distant future.
Whilst I would agree that the numerous limitations to the iPhone Bluetooth profiles is well known .
Whilst I would agree that the numerous limitations to the iPhone Bluetooth profiles is well known and it's reasonable to assume that people know about them they are pretty annoying. I suspect that the Bluetooth file transfer protocols may take some time to appear: Apple don't even let applications written using the SDK access to the filesystem (beyond a little area reserved for that application)! Hopefully over time some of the "standard" Bluetooth things we have grown to expect will be added. Sending pictures, sending/receiving contacts, modem (tethering) usage...
Hey if you're not happy with it, then yeah it is your fault.
Lots of people are happy with it.
If you or someone else is not, I'm not going to suggest you need to be happy with it or the features it offers, but it's not like they are state secrets.
Even if you totally forget to check, you can always return or sell the damned thing and move on to something you like better.
