So object push, had some time today, here's how it worked for me:
1) Turned on the device, went to configuration, turned on bluetooth (to visible but wasn't needed since my PC had cached information)
2) On the PC opened my bluetooth places, saw my device on the list (if it wasn't I would've scanned for nearby devices)
3) On the PC chose to connect to the device (try to open, double click, or choose from the right click menu).
4) On the device filled in a pin in the dialogue that popped.
5) On the PC entered the same pin I chose in 4, in the dialogue that now popped up.
6) On the PC saw the list of available services for the device (short list only object push).
7) On the PC right clicked on the object push service of the device and from the menu chose to send an object.
8) On the PC browsed to where I prepared an epub book and selected it (had to change the view first to show all files).
9) On the device popped up a small file-transfer window (only took a few seconds for an epub so faster then I imagined but still a 0.5MB epub isn't a 7MB pdf).
10) On the device in the root of the internal memory I now had my epub, not that convenient for me since I keep my files organized on the SD card, but the file opened and seems fine.
Notes: even though the devices were paired before I was asked for a pin exchange, probably because of the recent update to the 2.0.6 firmware. Second time around it wasn't needed.
1) Configuration -> Connectivity -> Bluetooth access.
6) If you don't see the list you should still probably have a 'search for services' option that will let you find it.
Thoughts: might be convenient if you don't have the cable around, but not a big time saver or as flexible as using the cable ;
With a little bit of effort the Bluetooth FTP service could be realized, and give you the same flexibility afforded by the cable, to choose where you want the files placed.
