Bluetooth

Windows

Use the wizards. Make sure you install the "PIM Item Transfer" option. Once that's installed and enabled, you should be able to just scan for bluetooth devices with your phone, choose your PC, and send. Files will appear in My Documents\Bluetooth Exchange Folder

Debian Linux

Install the obexserver package. Each time you start the machine, run the command:

# sdptool --add --channel=10 OPUSH

You may want to put this in your system startup. Then, whenever you want to receive a file via bluetooth, run the command:

# obexserver

You can now scan for bluetooth devices with your phone, choose your PC, and send. Files will appear in /tmp/

OS X

Access to the cell phone filesystem

Nokia doesn't give you a good file browser by default. We like to use FExplorer (http://www.gosymbian.com) for this. FExplorer gives you a graphical file system navigator that allows you to perform simple operations (copy, move, delete) as well as send files via bluetooth.
