I hate that people print out presentations for meetings etc.. But the main reason people do this is so that everyone in the meeting is looking at the same thing, and sometimes people do not have access to corporate networks etc... The way people currently share data is to use a USB fob and pass around the presentation which is a pain.
So my thought is to expand the bluetooth spec to include a drop box, The user that wants to share places the document in the drop box on there computer, then the bluetooth would kick on and share the doc, a password could be placed on it so people standing outside the room could not get the doc etc... But it would more or less transfer to all the computers instantly. This would be great in a university setting when the teacher has a handout, damn the entire class has it! The other usefull application is if E-ink readers take off, this could be a way of sharing files without having to worry about a roubust OS underneath able to browse a intranet etc....
