See here.

no mention of Bluetooth (just WiFi and Infrared) for the TH55 HK model features though

the French review mentions Bluetooth for the "modèle européen" though

Ya but it looks like the European version will cost a lot of money.

It is thought to retail at around 450 euro.
Sony has gone about this all wrong in europe they over price on the units i mean you could buy a UX50 for $500 which comes out at 420 odd in the US but it's 800 euro in a lot of europe.

I think they have over priced the PDA's.
