1 week old Droid Questions

Here are the things I have not been able to figure out yet....mayeb someone can help!

1. How can I open simple jpg attachments from emails? I get an "unable to open attachment" error every time I try. If you recommend getting an app, which one for attachment opening? Will it also work for Word, Excel.....

2. The picture shutter sound seems to be way before the actual picture. Am I doing something wrong? Also, for 5mp, it does not seem very clear. Ideas???

3. I have been told that my bluetooth to car for the audio player will be fixed by an upcoming "update". How can I get the update? What will it include. Are others haveing the same problem as me for the audio player through Bluetooth?

4. Is there a way to print from my Droid to a Bluetooth printer?

Love the phone, just looking for some IT support..
Thanks!!!

#1... I sent myself and/or receive emails (Gmail account) with Jpeg photos attachments, i scroll the photo until the options appear at the bottom of the email... download-preview/reply-forward-/delete-older.

#2.. In the camera App... CHECK your setting (the right side of view screen)... also practice taking some photos.. a little shaking may give you a blur. CLEAN YOUR LENS... yes the LENS on the back of the DROID needs to be cleaned of smudges, OILS, and foreign matters just like any other camera.

#3... The DROID is not Bluetooth earpiece friendly especially voice commands, let see what this CURE-ALL update on DEC 11th fixes.

#4... There are Apps for printing, free and retail, check them out in Market.

I have noticed that the DROID does work very well with Motorola headsets, but doesn't play nice with others.... my Jawbone works fine (without voice commands mind you) but it took 5 tries to get my Nokia to even be recognized.

Bluetooth ear/head pieces are a hit and miss, i went through it with my DARE, and have given up even trying to pair one up to the DROID, i went with 3.5 earbuds, they aren't friendly either, but the connection is solid.

You would think with all the driving laws against holding a cell phone/talking behind the wheel, new phones and Blue-tooth OPTIONS would be a standard with FULL compatibility.

Although I can understand the frustration of the bluetooth voice-dialing issue, I just don't understand why everyone is making such a big deal out of it. I mean, if I use my BT headset (my Jawbone which works perfectly so far), and I tap the microphone icon, then speak my command, it works just fine. I just can't use the button on the headset. A little annoying but not a big deal.

Sure, would like to see them fix it but it's just not that big of a deal...
