Hi Robert, Alex is trying to confirm your hypothesis. I asked him if he can try chatting on Facebook to see if I can help him with his Bluetooth connection problem between his Apex and his PC running Win7. Cheers, Joseph

But I definitely saw file, USB client and bluetooth at that prompt (I have not tested USB client either). But even if it turns out not to work, as I said, it looks to be the foundation for implementing Bluetooth object exchange in a future upgrade. So, while this is good news, don't get ya hopes up too high just yet... PS. Joseph, thanks for adding me to your list of "experts".

The hypothetical steps are: 1. The Bluetooth method is selected - KeySoft will prompt to search for Bluetooth devices. 2. Find the desired Bluetooth device then press ENTER. Then KeySoft will ask if the file should be translated as either Braille or text file. 3. Then KeySoft will ask if the host is ready. A message will come up on another device ,saying that a mobile device is trying to send a file and wants you to confirm it. Confirm it and the object (the file) will be transferred. At least that's my hypothesis.

While I was exporting the document, I decided to play around a bit. When I was at the prompt "Export to which device? currently file", I decided to check to see what other options were there as on the mPower, the only other option had been the serial port and there's no serial port on the Apex. Well, the other two choices were USB Client and Bluetooth. Unfortunately, I do not have another Bluetooth device around at the moment so I cannot test this, but does this mean that for documents at least, file transfer via Bluetooth is supported? If it isn't, then it looks pretty likely that it will be in the not too distant future as this looks like the foundation for it.
