Briefly: I think UDI means you would
be able to use your phone in a video-
conference link, even though the phone
itself only served as a conduit to
something else that actually displayed
the video.

I know next to nothing about Bluetooth,
but most packet protocols need some
kind of adaptation to the requirements
of multimedia.
