JSR 82 - Bluetooth API 1.1

JSR 82 enables developers to create applications that utilize Bluetooth technology, a widely deployed standard for wireless communication. Bluetooth may be employed to exchange files, pictures, business cards, or other data between mobile devices. If the device supports Bluetooth, then it must also support JSR 82 in order to be MSA compliant.
