so i have to sit and wait on bluetooth, the most basic of operations, along with so many countless basic things. sorry, i do not get involved with cat fights with children
um, bluetooth was first developed for headphones and headsets. If it didn't do THAT, then you'd have a point. But that's not the case, those both work fine. The headset/headphone function is basic, it was the first function, and the one most closely identified with bluetooth. When people think "bluetooth" they think "headset" not "file transfer". File transfer is a more advanced function and came later.
The fact that "everyone else" has something does not make it basic, it makes it popular or trendy.
If you actually read up on the subject, there is a security flaw with using bluetooth for file transfer in android, so it wasn't included and won't be until that can be fixed. This is a new OS, surprise surprise, there are bound to be a few glitches. Even mac has glitches, you should flip through their forums, they've got angry people too.
I had a WinMo phone for over a year. Not one update. In the year since I got my Android, there have been about 5 with a few more looming in the air.
The thing about google products is that they are CONSTANTLY evolving. Winmo will wait a few years before giving you anything useful, but they'll call it an upgrade and make you pay for it. Google will fix it without really making a big deal about it. You'll just sign into gmail and see "hey, what's that? Oh cool!"
