+<title>Bluetooth-tdeioslaves: Devices and services</title>
+<para>
+The bluetooth-tdeioslaves let you handle bluetooth devices and
+list and use their services with konqueror (or any other file manager that can
+use TDE's File IO framework).
+</para>
+<sect2>
+<title>Using the Bluetooth tdeioslves</title>
+<para>To search for devices, simply enter
+<ulink url="bluetooth:/">bluetooth:/</ulink> with konqueror. You will immediately
+see an entry for your own system.
+</para>
+<para>
+You can also click the Bluetooth-Icon in the konqueror sidebar in
+the "Services"-tab, next to the LAN- and Audio-CD-Browser.
+If you can't see the icon it might help to reset the sidebar
+with <guimenuitem>config-button -> Add new -> Rollback to system default</guimenuitem>
+</para>
+<para>
+The devices must have been detected and paired, so that the slaves can communicate with them.
+</para>
+<para>
+When you select a device you will get a listing of the services
+published by the device. If the service is supported by tdebluez,
+you can click it to launch the appropriate application.
+Unless you've disabled it, konqueror will pop up the common file-open-dialog.
+In case the service is not known, you will get an open-with-dialog instead.

+<title>Current limitations</title>
+<para>tdeio_bluetooth has no support for nested browse groups currently. This won't
+be hard to add, but wasn't need so far.</para>
