Messages can be sent automatically. Like I said in my previous message when I was in the o2 arena I was sent a message by o2, which of course I had to accept. Not sure what exactly they use and how they do it, but there is some sort of automated system, which sends messages to all the Bluetooth devices in the area.

how would you do this?One way could be a system where a member of the train staff could be asked to send you the menu by a laptop or just by using a mobile phone provided on the train. You would be required to pair with it though and this may cause technical issues for some.If I want to send a file from one phone to the other, I have to first pair the phones and send the file from one phone to the other. I use one phone to search for nearby bluetooth devices. I select the device I want and choose to pair with it. The other phone then has to accept the request to pair and once this is done the sending process can happen. This would help many people but still present technical difficulties for many.Regards Graham .

Would this actually be Blue Tooth, or maybe Wi-Fi? Either way, if it would work, then seems a good idea to me; but am I missing something here?

Please accept my apologies too. Will try to stay on topic, only life would be so boring without a bit of harmless banter and imagination. Back on topic, hands up all those who own a phone equipped with Bluetooth! yes loads of you, well, what if the train companies and many other companies for that matter, made available Bluetooth downloads of menus and other services so you could hear them through your phone, and it cost nothing. Dave My sincere apologies everyone for the banter between a few of us today, of which I was a part, that went off track in the midst of a thread about Virgin Trains. Nice though it is to share a bit of harmless fun on an otherwise extremely dreary day, I appreciate this is a list for access technology and, as such, should remain on topic at all times. Hands up! sorry! (smiles).
