Re: Turning Bluetooth On on the N800
 
It's really baffling that the bluetooth symbol disappears from the toolbar when you use it to turn off BT.. and that you have to go all the way through the control panel to turn it on. That's definitely a bug in my opinion. On my T3, for example, there is a similar BT symbol on the toolbar, used for the same purpose, and when BT is off the symbol is still there, it's just grayed out a little to indicate that BT is off.

That's how the community-created Bluetooth applet on the 770 behaved. I'm still trying to imagine the mindset of the PHB at Nokia who thought that should be reinvented less intuitively.

There is word on the maemo-dev list that this looks more like a bona-fide bug in the relevant applet than a PHB's bad Monday. One person at least is working on a patch. It might be made available as an "unofficial" deb before the next OS update.
