[G4] Moto V551 and bluetooth and iSync

[B G]

I guess that is my problem. It is Cingular and it is brand new only  
had it for a couple of days. At least I can transfer files so I can  
play with ring tones and transfer pics and video.

I will pick up a USB cable and try the Isync that way. It sounds like  
I need to wait for another update to iSync.
