The reason Garmin didn't add Bluetooth to this is because of interference between it and the GPS receiver.

I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be able to use an SD Bluetooth card with this, but you'll have the same interference problems if you try to use the GPS service at the same time.

I can confirm what chrisbac said. I write for Brighthand, a website dedicated to handhelds, so I got to spend a bit of time with the Garmin iQue 3600 at CES. I asked the company rep about a version with Bluetooth and he said they were working on it but were having serious problems with interference.

To answer someone else's suggestion, I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be able to use an SD Bluetooth card with this, but you'll have the same interference problems if you try to use the GPS service at the same time.

If you want a Palm OS handheld without GPS but with Bluetooth, check out the Palm Tungsten T or the just-announced Sony NZ90.

If you're going to make people think about a completely new user interface, they're going to think about migrating to PocketPC devices, as well.

But they aren't making a completely new user interface, all they did was change the character recognition software.
