We are about to being a project connecting bluetooth cameras to a PocketPC
(2003 SE).

Does anyone have:

1. Experience with blueTooth cameras for PDAs
2. Experience with bluetooth .net programming

Are there articles, or OpenNETCF work in this area?
 
OpenNETCF does have some stuff on Bluetooth, although it doesn't all seem to
come as part of their download. You can view the bluetooth stuff here :

I imagine you are going to be using the OBEX service (depending what the
camera supports) to transfer your files, which I have no idea how to use and
I don't believe is covered in the above link, but there is a section on OBEX
file transfer in the book "Programming Windows CE.NET" at
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0735618844/202-3503002-8616607 but
that's all in C++.

HTH,

Also, (as has been mentioned before on this forum), the above assumes your
Pocket PC device supports the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack, if you are using
the Widcomm Stack (seems to be most devices) or Socketcom Stack (Socket BT
Cards) you will have to use their SDKs.

We tend to favor the Dells for this, since they use the Microsoft stack.
There have been a lot of complaints about the Widcom stack.
