This is what he's using.

If you need midlet on the mobile? I don't know.
When you are using standards and you are sticking to those standards it's fine without.
When you are doing it "your way" you will probably have to enable the mobile to talk to you.
The projects website shows some good examples - stick to them and don't make it to special.

thanks for replying..
just to clarify..
so you are saying that i don't have build a midlet if im using the bluecove API correctly?

I don't know that API, but BT is a general standard which connects multiple devices. So there should be a common understanding between those devices without special midlets.
