Here's a challenge

Sometimes I leave my PC on to download something and I go to sleep with my phone beside me. I think a good (and a clap then some for who can pull this off) script would be that any message I recieve it gets sent thru Bluetooth to my cell phone. Im not sure how other cell phones/mobile OSs act but my Nokia E70/Symbian 9.1 phone recieve all Bluetooth transmissions as a message. Therefore this script would get the message sent by the contact, send it as a Bluetooth text message to my cell phone, and I would be able to read it.

Reply I think would be asking for too much and besides thats not a Plus! script; It would have to be a Symbian application which is a whole nother world.

Would be good if you have a large apartment/house, your laptop is in the bedroom, your cooking in the kitchen and someone IMs you something important.



Im just thinking this is pretty hard to do.

I was looking into using bluetooth in a script a while back, but there aren't any good ways to communicate without without using windows own bluetooth.dll... Then you'd have to make a text file, send it (not all phones can open text files btw), possibly have to pair with it and enter a pass code...

Too much work I think... Maybe one could be done to send a text though

* Spunky has idea now... go away

Bluetooth's capabilities limit it to 10 meters, on most devices, without anything in the way... so both devices would need to be VERY close

didn't know this possibility... I hope to see amazing things coming... maybe with a script and my electronic skills (6 month to reach my electronic engineer degree ) I can make amazing stuffs...

maybe anyone can write a code for pupper master...
Pupper master is a pc control program via bluetooth or GPRS.And it have scripting feature

Here is a MirandaIM script: http://z7.invisionfree.com/PuppetMaster/index.php?showtopic=7

maybe this can help for scripters

-sorry for my english

this is something i want someone to have a look into as i don't have a lot of knowledge of connecting with bluetooth but i did have an idea to control a few basic messenger functions with a second PS3 sixaxis/dualshock 3 bluetooth controller paired with the PC instead of the PS3 so that i can view messages when playing PS3

That is a possible solution.  It is not the best, but is something for now at least.

eqo is a good one you download the app and you dont need your pc on... its just msn on your phone and its cheap... just one connection charge and your on msn!!!!

10 meters? You must have a pretty cheap USB Bluetooth adapter.

I have a 100meter USB Bluetooth adapter and I get perfect range. Only 20 bucks.
