I have heard from somewhere that we can route cellphone calls from the phone through the PB, after everything is paired. And apparently, when a call comes through the PB displays a window, with the caller contact info (if it's saved in the Address Book). Is there any truth to this, and if it is accurate, can someone show me how to use this feature? I have an older PB, 15", 1gz. thanks!
Got a tip for us?

I have an AWESOME app called Blue Phone Elite..
And it does what you said...when someone calls, it pulls them from the Address book on your Mac, and shows there pic, info and whatever else.
Plus you can send texts through it using the Mac keyboard.
There is a lot of stuff you can use it for..
Highly recommended.
edit* the panda beat me to it* but ya check out that link above...it's a bad ass app..
