[BTM] T-610 with no service contract as Salling clicker?

[Jeffrey Dickson]

Thanks for the replies--so, based on this sample, the consensus is  
that the phone needs service to function as a clicker?

I assume there's a simple reason for this, I just can't figure it out  
(since I know very little of the Salling Clicker, other than it  
allows bluetooth remote control functions).  Where does the T-Mobile  
satellite enter the equation when two bluetooth devices talk to each  
other?

Thanks,
Jeff
