Hi there,
Here are some links mentioned in the Bluetooth talk:

Mac OS X Bluetooth client
The built-in Bluetooth client for Mac OS X is located here:
   /Applications/utilities/Bluetooth Explorer
   
The Easiest way to launch the OS X Bluetooth client is a one-time visit to:
   i) Finder --> Apple --> System Preferences... --> Bluetooth preference pane
   ii) Then check: "Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar"
Then whenever you want to connect to a device using Bluetooth, select the Bluetooth menu bar item

Built-in OS X support for Bluetooth syncing with Cell phones
To see if your phone is included in the built-in Bluetooth iSync service included with Mac OS X, check this link:
     www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html)
If your phone is not listed, but is close to one of the models listed, try searching for it or posting a query in the Apple Bluetooth and iSync discussion boards:
     discussions.apple.com (http://discussions.apple.com) , then click on the Bluetooth or iSync categories.
 
Palm OS Bluetooth add-on
Bluetooth-equipped Palm PDAs <palm.com (http://palm.com)> (eg. Tungsten E2, Tungsten T/X, Treo 680, etc.) support
receiving files via Bluetooth from the Mac out of the box.

This 3rd-party Palm OS software adds support for Browsing the Palm's internal
and external (SD) file systems, over Bluetooth from the Mac OS X Bluetooth Explorer:

Video camera input enhancement
The Palm OS phone was demonstrated using an external firewire iSight video camera. Enhancements to focusing, exposure, image rotation, etc. were performed using a 3rd party enhancement: iGlasses, $8
