Api makes a lot of sense in desktops. The Bluez/Dbud based Qt mobility connectivity 1.2 works out of the box on Linux desktop. I have used it both Andoid and Linux desktop version of my app.  Is someone maintaining the Api aftet Nokia times ? It would be nice to get some missing features implemented and bluetooth Api rinning also on iOS and Mac.
