But you hardly hear about it nowadays. I know at least one billboard campaign which would send data to a phone or PDA with Bluetooth if it was in range, but I haven't seen any since, and that was in May 2005. I imagine not enough people have Bluetooth turned on - I think most people either keep Bluetooth turned off or just don't know how to use it. I certainly have it off on mine, mainly to save battery power. Bluejacking was popular here about 3-4 years ago when Bluetooth phones were new and only a few people had them.
