| 794790 | 2009-07-24 01:26:00 | Looking for one. Would like to know reasonable brands please, prefer not too expensive as all I really need it for is to transfer ringtones to new mobile And attempting to go online with mobile directly is driving me somewhat insaner then normal I see theres heaps on trademe, some quite cheap. Anyone know how good any of these ones are? |

| 794791 | 2009-07-24 01:32:00 | For what version of windows? The ASUS one I brought (BTD201M) isnt too bad. Only cost $26. It came with a program. Only thing is, its meant to work with Vista x64 but it doesnt. So, I chucked it on the PC with XP on it |

| 794793 | 2009-07-24 02:09:00 | It'd probably be better if you could transfer from the old to the new one. If both have BT. Just enable BT on both, pair both, then send (if it allows you to send whatever with BT). I see no point in getting a dongle (if all youre doing is transferring from one to the other) | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 794795 | 2009-07-24 02:22:00 | There are quite a few on dealextreme.com (dealxtreme?). They have free international shipping. | utopian201 (6245) | ||
| 794796 | 2009-07-24 02:30:00 | Myth, over a year ago I bought a generic bluetooth dongle from QMB for only $14 and it works perfectly. I use BlueSoleil (http://www.bluesoleil.com/)software - I cannot recall if it came with the dongle or if I downloaded it separately. I usually do not by generic but it was so cheap I added it to another order and took a chance on that it would be OK. Before I got bluetooth I bought a DSE infrared dongle, probably around $25. Works OK but of course IR is slower than bluetooth - at the time of purchase I did not have a phone with bluetooth, but I still use IR for SWMBO's cellphone. |
