 |  Bluetooth or Other Wireless Headsets -- Less Security? I have been hesitant to purchase a wireless headset, such as Bluetooth, for my Treo 755p because I have wondered if it would allow others to retreive information from my Treo. It seems as though, in setting up the wireless headset, I would have to allow certain remote access that I normally would not have to allow. Does anyone know the answer or even the possible answer to this?

Apps that never worked for me: Graffiti Anywhere, Metro. I can't stand the built-in contacts program. I have no wireless headset yet. I have a 2 GB SD card and it's plenty. |

| You have to pair with a device to use it. If you pair and set it as a trusted device and then set the Treo to hidden and that should make you as secure as secure is.

| Blue tooth, wouldn't allow people to gain access to thing on the phone persay, they may be able listen to the conversation... You can beam things back and forth, however, you have to allow that information to be transfered.
