Description:
FREEWARE - BtServer uses Palm''s Bluetooth virtual serial driver to communicate with other Bluetooth devices that support the Serial Port Profile.

It opens the Bluetooth virtual serial driver in server mode. This creates an RFCOMM listening socket and an SDP entry that advertises the Serial Port Profile.

Client devices that support the Serial Port Profile can then discover and connect to the Palm handheld.

The application works on Palm OS v4.0, v4.1 as well as OS v5.0 handhelds, assuming the necessary Bluetooth libraries have been loaded. BtSerial (on this web site) is a good Palm client to use to connect to BtServer.

With BtSerial on one Palm handheld and BtServer on another, you essentially have a very simple "chat" application.

Update Description:
v1.4 (1 July 2003):
- Improved application icons
- You can now specify "0" (zero) for "Send data every x seconds" (as fast as possible)
- Added ability to beam BtServer over Ir and Bluetooth
