    Someone was drinking a grape soda while inventing it and thought "Aha!"
    "To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic." -- Ted Nugent

    I can't wait until the new Forkbeard technology comes out. Everyone knows he kicked the crap out of old man Bluetooth back in the day.

    he sure was! did anyone hear the rumor about him loving blueberries, so he had a nickname of 'blueteeth' or 'bluetoth'?

    i did hear the other stuff about him uniting denmark and norway too.

    It's called "infrared" because the devices transmit a spectrum of light just below the visible (to humans) red spectrum. Not because they name it after colors.

    Similar to "ultraviolet," which is a spectrum of light above the visible color spectrum of violet.

    Harald Bluetooth was king of Denmark in the late 900s. He managed to unite Denmark and part of Norway into a single kingdom then introduced Christianity into Denmark. He left a large monument, the Jelling rune stone, in memory of his parents. He was killed in 986 during a battle with his son, Svend Forkbeard. Choosing this name for the standard indicates how important companies from the Baltic region (nations including Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland) are to the communications industry, even if it says little about the way the technology works.

    why is it called Bluetooth?
    that's really an interesting question we never though before.
    and thanks for TB's information.
