Did a search...but still need answers

I will be receiving my EVO tomorrow or friday. Coming from a palm pre and Winmo i had a few questions.

1) Bluetooth. can send and receive files and contacts?

2) checkbook (palm pre app). Is there a good replacement?

3) When you plug it in USB, does it have the option like some of the older HTC devices to read just the SD card AND still work as a phone. was very bummed that the pre did not do this. And now that car radio has a USB port this would work very well (charge, phone over radio via BT and music on sd card via USB).

4) the text to speech. How does that work with BT. For whatever reason my radio does not have the voice dial option (its an eclipse cd5030). How exactly does that work when connected as a headset via BT. And does having set up for A2DP affect that as well?


Thanks in advance. And i did do a search but only found 2 suggestion for teh checkbook app. Just seeing if there are any more.

1: Yes. I had a Touch Pro 2, Windows Mobile 6.5 I had no problem transferring files from the TP2 to the EVO.

2: I never used a Pre, sorry.

3: Yes, it has all those options and a few more. I was impressed.

4: While I do not know the technical on this, I know it works. I use it.

Thanks for the quick response. I am still looking for more answers to 2 and 4 on my own, but again thanks. btw, where is the thanks button. I added some rep for but that was all I could find at the moment.

how do you send files via BT?

I believe the app is called 'Bluetooth File Transfer'... but I'm sure there's about 25 other apps doing the same thing in the market.

ok got ya. all you had to say was third party app. i thought there was some native way you guys were doing it.

i bet even ASTRO might even do it.
