LAN bluetooth connectivity for T5 and Treo650

Hi,

I'm trying to find out if the treo650 can be attached to my home LAN via bluetooth.

I was under the impression that all Palm bluetooth models supported this sort of connection, but the information I've been reading on the treo650 is indicating that maybe it doesn't support the PAN or LAN? profiles. Anyone knows if it supports the same profiles as T5?

Looks to me that treo650 with Agendus loaded would be a fantastic tool, but I need network connectivity.

Seems to be almost impossible to find out this highly crucial information from the product pages, for any of the manufacturers, not just Palm. I'm REALLY getting tired of smart phone manufacturers crypling network connectivity, I assume to pander to the network operators. Symbian are doing the same thing. I want a converged device, but not if it won't connect to my network. Pocket PC is starting to look good.

Anyone know anything about this, or how to get a 650 wirelessly connected to the local network?

Any info greatly appreciated,

Regards
Brad
 
I found this list of profiles last night on the USA palm site, seems to indicate Treo 650 doesn't support the LAN profile needed to use ICS from an Access point or PC, bluetooth definitely seems to be treated differently to other palms. Any other ideas of how to get the 650 to talk to a LAN? Is it possible the necessary profiles can be made available for installing?
