Version 1.3 of XTNDAccess Blue SDK from Extended Systems is a multi-purpose software development kit (SDK) for implementing Bluetooth wireless protocols in handheld devices. Based on Bluetooth specification version 1.1, XTNDAccess Blue SDK 1.3 implements Bluetooth wireless protocols for embedded devices such as cellular phones, PDAs, consumer electronics, portable office equipment, industrial automation products, and more.

XTNDAccess Blue SDK 1.3 adds the Bluetooth Network Encapsulation Protocol (BNEP) for support of the newly formed Personal Area Network (PAN) profile. This profile focuses on ad hoc networking between one person's set of devices. For example, a person's cell phone, PDA, and PC could exchange information seamlessly. Bluetooth also embodies the wireless personal area network WPAN, which extends PAN to incorporate the local area network (LAN) and access to the Internet.

The multi-transport Object Exchange OBEX module has been enhanced to allow for multiple, simultaneous servers and clients. This provides Extended Systems' customers with the basis for future development and support of the Basic Printing Profile (BPP). Bluetooth hardware support has been updated to include the latest code revisions at CSR, Ericsson, Infineon, Silicon Wave, and Texas Instruments.
