You want to send files via bluetooth right ? I heard that bluetooth on iDevices can only be used to connect to accessories such as heaphones

The only 2 solutions i know right now is to copy your photos to your laptop and then sync it to iPad by iTunes
Or you can upload it online through photobucket.com,flickr.com,etc and open it on your iPad and then click save image

Bluetooth network connectivity is only between two iDevices and accessories like , keyboards, headphones etc
For security and the different files system BB wont pair with an iPad.

Email the pictures to yourself, then you can save them on the iPad.
