    I did a bit of reading. The BT4.0 chips can communicate with the oder BT versions. There wouldn't be a problem for the new phones to connect to the brick would it only support the old 2.1 BT protocols. But it is impossible to old phones to communicate...  moreI did a bit of reading. The BT4.0 chips can communicate with the oder BT versions. There wouldn't be a problem for the new phones to connect to the brick would it only support the old 2.1 BT protocols. But it is impossible to old phones to communicate via the new 4.0 protocols of course. So it was a design decision to not use the old protocols (that would make it possible for old and new phones to connect the brick) but to use the new 4.0 protocols only.
    There might be resonable facts to make that kind of decision of course. The new protocols seem to save energy for better battery life. (I would not care about that) Or maybe the chip inside the brick is not able to communicate via the old protocols. Or ist simply the fact that it would be necessary to do all teh work twice, once for 2.1 BT and once for 4.0?  less

    I was not able to get it to work. Just installed the app. The next step would be to add a profile, that did not work. The next step after that would be to connect to the brick. What you say is, that will not work because the 3gs has a wrong BT chip? Now...  moreI was not able to get it to work.

What would be better suited for a remote controller than an old cheap smartphone? I sure wont give my new 600 Euro IPhone into the hands of my 5 year old son to play with...
