Explain blue tooth to me?
Blue tooth is a type of wireless communication which is usually reserved for communications between two devices that are in close proximity to one another. Examples include a printer that can connect to a blue tooth compatible computer without wires or on the Nintendo Wii, blue tooth technology allows you to use the remote wirelessly with the game console.





In your case on a cell phone, blue tooth is used for 2 main things. 1, to transfer data (pictures, video, phone numbers ect...) between your phone and another blue tooth compatible phone or other device and 2, to enable you to use a wireless headset that is blue tooth compatible.
