To boldly use Bluetooth

We seem to have started a fashion: in the last two weeks at least two other media sources have been looking for examples of really bad Hollywood movie computer guffs.
So instead, we’re going to stay ahead of the game and from this week, we’d like to find out areas in which Hollywood got it right.
“Am I the only one that thinks Lt Uhura, the comms officer on the original Enterprise, was the first person to use Bluetooth technology?” asks Peter Wagstaff at Wieland Electric.
Not now. Any more unlikely films to actually get the technology right?

Comments

Uhura was NOT using bluetooth. How do I know? There were never any scenes of her in the background screaming at her earpiece, "Pair, you b*****d!"
