As you may have already seen here (
http://www.gadgetapps.net/forum/view...8b7a0c01390eab), Sniper is written in C# and the Widcomm API is in C++.
I personally think this is a weak reason as C# has the ability to run unmanaged C++ code. He also speaks of not having a device to test on.
I think the real reason is that the current Q is the only device of significant popularity that uses the Widcomm BT stack, so its not worth the effort and the financial return is minimal.
I also looked into MobiLuck, but that too only runs on the MS Stack. We can't access BT via Java either as we don't support the appropriate JSR (81 I think?).
I've come to conclusion that we're just going to have to accept being left out in the dark, or write one from scratch ourselves.
