Rating:  Summary: An excellent introduction to Bluetooth Review: I found "Bluetooth Revealed" to be an excellent source of information that is well organized and clearly written. As someone that does not have a deep technical background I was thankful for the authors' treatment of this complex subject. Miller and Bisdikian do an excellent job in describing the background of this technology and the rationale behind many decisions. I found the description of the protocol stack at the right technical level and now have a much better understanding of how Bluetooth compares and contrasts to other competing technologies. This book is now my "official" Bluetooth reference.
Rating:  Summary: Well written and informative Review: I found Bluetooth Revealed to be both very well written and very informative on its subject. I was excited to see a book by someone who has been a speaker at many Bluetooth conferences and curious to see how readable it would be. Whether you are a Bluetooth novice or more knowledgable on the subject, I think you will find this book worth your time. It is also evident that this book underwent a thorough technical review from the accurate information contained in it. King Harald would be proud!
Rating:  Summary: well balanced Review: I found the book very effective. In the country where I live books about Bluetooth are still relatively few and are far too basic for people with already some engineering background like myself. I enjoyed the nice balance between insights on what the process of creating a world wide standard looks like and the detailed but easy to read description of the standard itself. I would strongly recommend this book to those who want more than just a few illustrated usage cases.
Rating:  Summary: Technology Simplified and Clearly Explained Review: I found this book an extremely helpful tool for understanding the Bluetooth landscape. It clearly and concisely explains the specification, and the various protocols and profiles--even for laypeople. The book is laid out in a logical manner, with helpful diagrams and charts throughout. Readers of this book who are Bluetooth novices will become fascinated with the specification and its possibilities. I look forward to a second edition with updates on new versions of the Bluetooth spec.

Rating:  Summary: This book will become the Bluetooth technology primer! Review: I found this to be a expectedly well-written book for one covering a technical subject so well. It is written from the perspective of insider-engineers who were hands on in the development of the Bluetooth wireless specification. I found the background, development history and methodology particularly facinating. The technical components of the specification are laid out in a logical sequence and the book is written in an easy to understand manner and with the intention that the reader understands the technology. These are obviously not guys off in some Ivory Tower, but rather they are highly skilled engineers who are willing and able to speak with those of us who are not so deep into the technology. Highly recommended.
Rating:  Summary: Don't waste your time or money Review: I hope you do your research before buying this book. I found it to be a major disapointment. There are better books out there that cover this topic.
Rating:  Summary: An excellent and comprehensive book Review: I just completed reading this book. This book provides a very in-depth description of the BT spec coupled with insider's view of the BT standards. I now feel at ease with major BT components and feel confident to implement BT application (as part of my job responsibility). I very strongly recommend this book to *anyone* who is interested to know about BT.

Rating:  Summary: Re: This book is hard to read!! Review: I received this book recently and tried to assign some time to read it but already after 2 chapters, I can't continue. It is written in a manner that is so dull and hard to sleep. I either put that aside or snooze off. Please, try to write in a tutorial and interesting manner than writing it like a data/ standard specification document! Please accept this input seriously.
