ActiveSync Over Bluetooth between M200 and K-Jam : It Works!

One really exciting side benefit of the AKU2 Update has been seeing ActiveSync over Bluetooth actually work!

My M200 runs a bunch of Toshiba utilities, so I couldn't follow the guidelines posted on club iimate - i-mate™ K-JAM Bluetooth ActiveSync Setup (PDF).

So, I made up my own steps:

• I activated Bluetooth on the M200 and made it discoverable
• I used the Bluetooth Local COM applet to delete *ALL* the virtual COM ports. I then created a new virtual COM Port on COM6. This was of type LocalCOM-Server, which means it will handle incoming requests from a device.
• I then set ActiveSync on my M200 to use COM6, via the connection settings.
• Then, I went to my K-Jam, turned on Bluetooth, made it discoverable and created a New partnership
• The K-Jam detected my M200 and I was able to connect to it
• Then something magical happened. The ActiveSync service was detected.
• I then went to ActiveSync on the K-Jam and selected "Connect via Bluetooth"
• It connected and synched! It really synched.

I'm still in shock that it worked.
