[ug-bosug] Bluetooth stack in userland for open solaris

[Ram Kumar]

Hi anand,


 This is Ramu , I saw your project Details.The bluetooth concept is failure
model. people going to wireless model. why means ? the bluetooth min data is
passing like 4MB data to another computer but here is take time lot of
more.so i congrats your project it not come to future. The wireless concept
more power ful but life , here in my organzation more 150 laptops. solaris
install laptops 120 other windows xp, first i try to network cable lot more
problem,here is more heavy data passing to another computer that way so many
network traffics. then i go to bluetooth with togule & without togule only i
doing my R&D but so many problem allway waste my time so then way i go to
wireless then  every thing sucess,And one more bluetooth human brain is very
dangerous(brain affecting sometime or head diec so many thing)

if u want wireless details plz send a mail to me

with Regards
