Avoid Bluejacking By keeping the status of your Bluetooth device to "non-discoverable" when you are not using Bluetooth, you will help keep other Bluetooth users from accessing your mobile device without your knowledge. If you need your Bluetooth active, you can switch it to "discoverable" at any time. This will disable other Bluetooth users from sending text messages, stealing information and mobile phone commands from your phone. Daily Term: wand A pen-like scanning device, a wand is commonly used with such hardware peripherals as bar code readers. Also used to describe a stylus used with graphics tablets. To scan text with a wand, a user passes the tip of the wand over text; the optical scanning mechanism in the wand takes the text it has "read" and passes it along to the computer for processing.
