[android-developers] Re: No Bluetooth API in 0.9 or 1.0 SDK?!?!?
Hi there - I agree its a shame that there's no Bluetooth API in the initial release. I think they will get there - but it's obviously frustrating in the meantime. By way of being helpful - if you're interested, Rococo has created a variation of our Impronto Simulator that now includes Android support. It lets you develop in a simulated Bluetooth environment with Android, and program against the JSR82 APIs. We haven't released it as a full GA product as yet - but we're interested in getting people to try it out and give us feedback. If you - or anyone else - is interested in JSR82 on Android - drop me a line at: sos (at) rococosoft (dot) com and include the words Impronto Android in the subject line.

Hi , i really don't understand why everybody complaints about missing bluetooth API! This is a completely new phone OS, API's are the most important thing right now, so, give them time to create something good, let's think about the future, no only about the next few months. i would really like to see something better than jsr-82. Think of apple before complaining about missing API features, and remember: Android will run on lot's of devices, while Apple has their own hardware. cheers, paulo f On Fri, Sep 12, 2008 at 7:24 PM, sos100 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi there - I agree its a shame that there's no Bluetooth API in the initial release.

[android-developers] Re: No Bluetooth API in 0.9 or 1.0 SDK?!?!?
Bluetooth is very important for further integration of other sensors/ device to android device. I think they underestimate the importance of bluetooth. Let me put it this way: With bluetooth there is a possibility to connect Android device to lots of other thing (from T.V. and Refrigerator to phone and PC) and they simply removed it !!! I don't have enough time to wait another six month for Android 1.1, if it will not be released in version 1.0 I will go for another platform.
