Bluetooth 3.0 Blazing Fast: But is it Easier to Setup and Use Than 2.0?

Engadget tells us…

Bluetooth 3.0 + HS gets official, adds speed with 802.11

This is great news on the surface since it boosts data transfer from Bluetooth 2.0’s 3Mbps to about 24Mbps.

But the problems real people have with Bluetooth generally do not have anything to do with speed limitations. The real problem lies in Bluetooth stack (driver) quality and Bluetooth Profiles (how protocols and devices deal with Bluetooth). I, for example, have found a great deal of variability in how well Bluetooth works on Windows Mobile smartphones.
