Samsung E720 & Bluetooth
1 Answers
Just got an E720, saw a bluetooth dongle online for �12, went to local shop & it's �25, guy said it's all i need & u just drag & drop.
Went in the link & guy said I need the one with the cd rom & it's �50
Anyone know exactly what I need & where I can get it cheaply. Thanks

If you have Windows XP SP2, this already has bluetooth drivers so it is plug & play, no cd necessary. If you don't have XP SP2, or are looking for some slightly extended functionality, you need the Widcomm bluetooth drivers. When you get your dongle, google the dongle name and widcomm to see if the dongle manufacturer publishes their own version. Otherwise, I think you're ok downloading any version (at http://www-old.epox.nl/english/support/wireless/wireless .htm for example). I have seen bluetooth installed on a couple of different pc's, mine included, and the Widcomm software always looks the same. It might be worth checking this somewhere though (not The Link, they just want your �50!).
