00:bd:3a here. am in canada but it's a model from uk i think (bought via expansys)
originally, this idea sprang from thing like proximity applications
seen at some conferences (you are next to someone interested in the same things as you, etc.)
yes, for fun. but also a neat proof of concept. hoping it can move forward (thx!)

No, if the phone is on discover mode, you can ask the SDP records without pairing.
But your idea requires a installation of a app to advertise the new service.
I understand that it would require the installation of an app that would modify the SDP records. Having installed such an app (and enabled it as a contact method, ala the Skype profile) would indictate willingess to strike up a conversation with an otherwise unknown person.

The app is definitely only for fun. I agree having BT on all the time is not good. I imagine this app just been used for fun, so it would only do device checks when you turn the BT on or when you open the app. It wouldn't do this all the time(cause your battery would die)

HI All,
These are all the various N900 mac LAPs I've collected so far and I guess we can use these for the app to start with and add more if we need too:
34:7E:39
C0:38:F9
00:25
0
00:BD:3A
EC:9B:5B
I agree that the app shouldn't search all the time, but the you can do a manual search or that you can set it to search every 5-10 minutes or somthing. To be honest I'm happy with manual search to start out with.
now the big question. Who knows how to code for maemo?
I don't even though I am a coder, so would anyone be willing to help mok something up for us?

got the following reply from the Nokia Forums
I'm not 100% sure what SDP is ?!?
I'm not sure that checking the LAP code is going to work for trying to find N900. There is this list thelist (http://802.15ninja.net/bnapbnap/thelist.php) but it does not help much.
You could trying using SDP to check for the Bluetooth profile you want.
You could try this tool for checking the N900 SDP database.
ViewSDP (http://store.ovi.com/content/24022)
So I imagine it being used if you get on the train just to check for fun, or at a conference or a shopping mall, or pub.
It's just for a fun to be honest, and trying to illustrated another great example of how a normal Maemo user can think of something and then with the help of the community an Application is born :-)
