Depending on your confidence with a soldering iron, warranty issues, and
space constraints you could install a USB BT dongle INSIDE the laptop.
If you want to keep your external USB ports then a small two port USB hub
would also need to be fitted

I'm thinking that it could be done much neater than this iBook

Just a thought

Subject: [ukha_d] [OT] bluetooth card



Hey chaps, can anyone help with this one...



I'm looking for a Bluetooth adapter for my new laptop. I plan to leave
it in this new laptop *permanently* and use it for a Bluetooth mouse,
and possibly a headset for voip use etc... so I want one that does not
stick out of the body of the machine AT ALL...



I have a spare Cardbus/PCMCIA slot, and a spare Memory stick/MMC/SD
slot.



I would like a Bluetooth adapter that will fit totally inside either of
these available slots.... - I.E. therefore NOT a USB one....



Any recommendations?



TIA



Paul G.
