Blackie: Hey Sharon! How are you?

Sharon: I can’t hear you! Let me turn down my music.

Blackie: Wow! Those are cool headphones. But they’re not even connected to your MP3 player!

Sharon: Yeah. My MP3 uses Bluetooth technology, so it doesn’t need wires to connect with my headphones.

Blackie: What is Bluetooth technology?

Sharon: Bluetooth allows different electronic devices within a certain area to establish a single wireless connection.

Blackie: So the different devices can communicate with each other?

Sharon: Right!

Blackie: What other uses does Bluetooth have?

Sharon: Well, my home computer, keyboard, and mouse use Bluetooth.

Blackie: Cool! It must be fun to use a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Sharon: Yeah. The keyboard works from anywhere in the room. I can relax on my couch and type, and use my leg for a mousepad!

Blackie: What about other devices, like phones and entertainment systems?

Sharon: They can use Bluetooth, too.

Blackie: It sounds like Bluetooth makes a completely wireless world possible.

Sharon: That’s the purpose of this technology!

Blackie: I'd like to buy Bluetooth! Where did you buy it?

Sharon: I bought it at NOVA.

Blackie: Oh~I have to go to school or i'll be late.

Sharon: Ok!Ok! See you~
