If you have updated to the latest firmware (V4.0726.2.0.1), then this
will very likely be the problem. There seem to be a number of
connectivity bugs. Users of TomTom Navigator have found they cannot
establish a bluetooth connection from their N73 to their GPS device.
Nokia are aware of this but have said, since this only involves third
party applications, it's not their problem. I expect the problems will
be sorted out in a future firmware upgrade. However, this could be some
time: the last one was in June and they have given no indication when
the next one will be, if at all.
