Great thread... yeah, when blutooth was still just coming out they said it was going to connect your toaster and your microwave and your fridge... we all used to laught about it... I even convinced someone i was connecting to the internet through my fridge with bluetooth once. People are so gullible. It's histerical.
But now we have an actual reason to connect them... we can make them all into blobjects!
I can't wait to get my first text message on my phone (or fax) saying, "your toast has popped".
LOL!
BTW, Scannr or is it scanr.com just got like 4 mil or something in funding... basically you can email them any picture and they're OCR it and send it to back to you via email. I think the idea is business cards and cameraphones. Essentially they want to turn any cameraphone into an OCR scanner. Only works with 1mp or better cameraphones though, os... sort that's like .0001% of all phones.
Personally I think it's a cool idea, but it's definitely no Flickr, and the name knock-off leaves a poor tast in my mouth. It reminds me that we're definitely in an era of irrational exuberance... except now at least it's staying on the VC side, VC's are much more accountable than markets.
So,,, what does all this mean... when I right my shopping list on the white board on the side of my blobject of a fridge it will throgh my peer based blutooth network send a text message of my shopping list via my toaster by turning into text through Scanr.com! woohoo!
It's like we're already livving in the future! Or... maybe we as a race have a tough time telling the difference between our day dreams and reality. :)
Cheers,

It could be like Skype for faxing... which is actually not a bad idea.
Let's you share files via P2P and fax documents to actual fax machines
like Skype-Out.
Quick someone write that on a napkin!
