the thread detailing cell phone compatibility with bluetooth is terrific ... but where does that leave those of us who own phones that are not compatible? is there a software patch that smooths over connections with, for example, motorola phones? i've got a i335.

I think that where it leaves you is either at your carriers website looking for a new phone, or looking for a BT headset. I would be grand to have a universal interface, but when you compound the handset makers variation on BT implementation with various carriers crippling selected functionality it makes a very complected matrix to solve for.

Or something like the Parrot kits- they're a popular choice by many people looking to get good Bluetooth compatibility: http://www.parrot.com/usa
Edit: Also, regarding the software patches, I post anything in the Bluetooth thread if I find reports of updates that make a phone work. In most cases, it's a firmware update for the phone. I just made a quick check over at www.hellomoto.com/bluetooth and didn't see anything. Googling "i335 bluetooth compatibility" puts your post twice in the first five links
Enjoy... It is not a long list, but they do break it out by carrier. I have a Treo 755P that worked for a few days, before it sent my telephone a tilting into the world of reboot. The only way to straighten it out is to hard reset, restore the data, re download the email software, which for some unknown reason disappears, and re-setup all of your email accounts.
Now why a Treo 800 will work and a Treo 755P will not work is a mystery to me. I am going to check with Sprint to see what the difference is with the bluetooth on both phones.
