[plug] bluetooth camera phone

[Shayne O'Neill]

Axis did most of the heavy lifting for Bluetooth support iirc. (I know
this, because I was developing for etrax processors and sat on a verry
heavy kernel dev list for 2 years with these guys). Short answer is
linux did bluetooth before microsoft did . Long answer is: No idea if
bluetooth support is still like pulling teeth.

Just get a cheapie from Hong Kong off e-Bay, and plug it in. $12 is the
going rate. Cheap as chips, ha ha.  Less than a usb cable from the local
shop. AFAIK, they all work with Linux. Anyone found otherwise??
