Does anyone know of a way to allow a series 60 based phone (or indeed any nokia phone with Bluetooth) to accept incoming object push without the need to explicitly accept or pair with the device trying to push it?

Example of use: people pushing pictures on their phones to a 'drop box' within a club, where the club just has a phone to accept the pictures but doesn't need to press any buttons on their phone.

Or am I going to need to get specialist hardware for this? (or use a PC with a bluetooth adaptor)

The preinstalled OBEX service in Series 60 phones requires authorisation. You could create your own Series 60 C++ application having its own OBEX Object Push service that would capture the received file into the application and not require authorisation. Now the phone would have two OBEX services. To receive the file successfully into the application, the client side should select the correct OBEX service where to send the file - and this would most probably require a specific client-side application as well.

You cannot override the preinstalled obex service, which still runs on the phone and requires authorisation.

So probably not a good possible then - as we'd need for every client to have a specialist application - not just the default imaging software.

Do you know of any other way to do this?
