    Bluetooth is pretty much unusable for me?

    Have tried many different Bluetooth devices with less and less success. I live in apartment complex with about 80 units and whenever I try to pair a device my phone seems to pick up dozens of nearby devices but not ONE of mine. So I'm frustrated and baffled and about to give up on Bluetooth...

    Question NO PASSWORDS?

    How many converts to Android from iPhone?

    Me too but from iOS6; merely that iPhone costs too much and is being left behind by many others. Jobs is gone- and recall what happened to Apple last time he left; not much chance of a recall so Apple is headed down the tubes, IMO. And I speak as a fan of the MacBookAir and Pro.
