RE: [OT] Bluetooth Microsoft PDA's and winamp

["Steve Morgan" <steve@xxxxxxx>]

The TDK adaptor doesn't help.

I have the Bluetooth desktop and a Bluetooth headset that I want to use.
As you've spotted, the MS Bluetooth stack doesn't support certain
profiles (like Headset & Audio).

The TDK adaptor only works with the Bluetooth desktop if you use the MS
Bluetooth stack (and update the firmware) - same problem.

I did at one point manage to get both adaptors working at the same time,
but the Widcomm software that came with the TDK adaptor kept whinging
about not having a license for the MS adaptor. Kind of irritating in the
extreme.

I tried to partner the devices up so I could use the PDA to control
winamp and it seems that althought the included Microsoft Transceiver
see's the PDA microsoft have only released drivers for mobile phones /
printers / keyboard and mouse.=20

Has anyone else managed to get a Microsoft Transceiver to talk to the
outside world I felt sure you could at least Activesync your PDA with
their own hardware.=20

TDK seem to provide good drivers for their USB bluetooth adapter but
that would mean shelling out another =A370=20=20=20=20

Any help would be appreciated
