Unfortunately, some tech standards are like that and, fortunately, most aren´t. Could you imagine if 802.11x was like this?

If you read my tests of Bluetooth phones, you´ll see the wide variances in compatibility and the truly weird problems that cropped up, such as directory names being completely mixed up and jumbled (i.e. a few different names were chopped up and reassembled=.
