Address Book Bluetooth Features

[mikelong622]

So I just bought my first Bluetooth phone and I'm wondering if anyone knows if Address Book or a similar program is able to do some bluetooth things. I'm looking for something that will sync contacts, allow me to make calls through my computer to my phone, and maybe something that will notify me with a popup when I'm getting a call (if something so fantastic even exists).

well it depends heavily on the exact phone model..

most of the popular phones are compatible with isync which will sync your contacts/ical events as well as let you use the modem/sms/call features of the phone.

you can check the compatible phones list here http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html

I have a nokia n95 and although this phone wasnt directly compatible, i found drivers that allowed me to do all the above and even sync itunes/iphoto items via bluetooth

Pops up on screen when getting a call, even pauses iTunes. Does some other stuff too, but haven't played around with it enough.
