If VOIP is a marketed feature (Gizmo and now Skype) why require us to remain tethered. This is Nokia man, it's not like they don't make their own bluetooth headsets which I am sure could be nicely bundled. It would also be nice if we could get (think it's called) OBEX support built in so you could bluetooth beam files back and forth between phones and computers. The file manager does a nice job letting you browse a bluetooth device (at least my phone) but it's not quite the same thing. Let's hope future firmware updates include enhancements as well as fixes.
