I agree with Karel: the disappearance of the Bluetooth icon is a bug rather than a feature. It's a nuisance to have to go through several layers of Control Panel dialogs to reconnect. I tend to leave Bluetooth on most of the time because I like to use the keyboard even when I'm just browsing. My subjective impression is that it's a substantial additional drain on the battery.

Everybody's an expert on the typical behaviour of the average user. Funny how the experts don't always agree, though. ;)

It's one button press on my P910i. Granted, it's a function I had to assign to that button myself, but the point is Sony Ericsson thought it would be useful and provided it as one of the pre-programmed choices.

The "do it yourself" wasn't meant as a dig. Is there a technical reason why the 770 community solution wouldn't also work on the N800?
Different codebase; Nokia implemented the function themselves (which would probably clash with a third-party solution). Maybe other stuff...
