Hi ,

for those of you who are interested to control your robot with a cell phone and a bluetooth module see http://www.microcontroller-bg.com/btterm

The software is open source and is available for download from the above mentioned website.

I'm trying this out on my new phone. But got two problems . . .

First, my laptop can't find my phone's bluetooth. But both my laptop and my phone (using BTTerm) can however find/connect to the bluesmirf bluetooth on my robot just fine.

Also . . .
1) it won't let me choose a baud rate
2) it won't let me send commands without going through the Text input menu first . . . I'd like to type directly into the command prompt if possible! I'm trying to use it as a remote control, so I need quick access to sending commands.

If you can fix these issues, I'll can help make your software famous

And actually, upon exiting, I'd like it to ask if I'd like to turn my bluetooth off again
