3.0 out of 5 stars Beware of inaccuracies even at non-technical levels, February 18, 2003

This review is from: Bluetooth End to End (Paperback)

There are numerous inaccuracies such as page 53 that states that BT range is NOT affected by walls, doors or other solid objects. This is so basic an error and important that one must wonder about anything this book states.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bluetooth Made Easy, April 12, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Bluetooth End to End (Paperback)

Of the books on the market on Bluetooth, this was the first I have found obviously written with the reader in mind. This book is excellent for non-engineers who just want to know a bit more about this technology without earning a radio communications degree at the same time. I recommend this book to any business person with a need to know more about this technology on a mostly non-technical level. If this is what the End to End books are all like, I think I will be a huge fan!

This review is from: Bluetooth End to End (Paperback)

I thought the book was well written and gave very good basic information but it is behind the curve of what bluetooth is today. It talks a lot about what will be when we already have that and more.
