Ubuntu Brainstorm was updated in January 2009. Since the idea #15625 was submitted before this update, its rationale and solution are not separated. Please vote accordingly, and if you have the necessary rights, please separate the rationale from the solution. Thanks!

Command line steps from the link in rationale can be automated. It would be nice if I could only choose device name (even nicer if I could pick it up from the list of available devices).

This would be the best solution. A the moment when I connect mobile via bt there are only two options:
- browse file system
- send file

There supposed to be one more option:
- connect to the internet

With Mac OS X, there is iSync, a powerful tool which helps configuring the link between the computer and the mobile device and the synchronisation of the data.
Shouldn't we think about developing an open source platform which would at least propose the basis of the synchronisation. This would be an open standard for the data coming from the computer (so from Thunderbird, Evolution, Tomboy, anything else) AND with the phones. Because this program should be open source, only 2 actors would have something to work on: 1st the distributions - here Ubuntu ;) - which would have to integrate and to improve the synergies between mail, contact, calendar, notes (and so on) programs with the synchroniser; and secondly the phones and notebook manufacturers, which could know very easily how the sync program works and to include in their firmware/program the protocol.

This way, we could benefit from synchronising without suffering from the charge of supporting all the different models that exist and that will come on the market and in the other way, because all the manufacturer would have to do is going on the website's project and to get the documentation/specifications of the platform, and every developer would only have to do, is to interact with the sync program, as with an API.

Then Ubuntu Users should be at term able to sync their data on the web, for working on any pc, but also on their mobile device.

Create a Bluetooth login service which will detect bluetooth devices and when one comes in range, it will login that user depending on what the name of the bluetooth device is.

If multiple Bluetooth names were discovered that have profile's on that computer, no one would be logged in.
