Kardach was later quoted as saying, “King Harald Bluetooth…was famous for uniting Scandinavia just as we intended to unite the PC and cellular industries with a short-range wireless link.” (His dead tooth, which was a dark blue/grey color, and earned him the nickname Bluetooth.) Bluetooth was only intended as a placeholder until marketing could come up with something really cool.
