Ah. Sorry, bit too quick with the scissors... You've already answered my
question:

It's all simple WM5 stuff. Activesync4.1 was already on the computer and the
new PDA interacted with it easily. Turn PDA on, go to it's bluetooth
manager, turn that on, go to settings and then pairing, discover any
bluetooth device which found the computer, select it, give a pin number,
enter the same number AT the computer and then go back to the PDA and set up
bluetooth autosync, encrypted. Computer asks for permission to allow the PDA
to interact with it which I did by ticking "always" allow and then OK and
off it all went. PDA was updated with files and emails it was supposed to
have sent to it and user had been in and out all day, obviously going out of
range and coming back. He could always interact with the computer until the
next morning when it wouldn't allow it.
So the only real question is the "discoverable" bit. Clearly having to
type something at the keyboard is not comparable to walking down the
road and randomly picking up dial tones. That's the whole point of
"pairing" - both devices have to agree to the relationship.
cheers,
Adam
