Toshiba A75/S229 Need a Bluetooth card? glee 09-25-2007

I'm trying to figure out if I can get Bluetooth to work on my A75/
S229. I'm pretty sure this model didn't come with bluetooth. I need
to know how and what I would need to get bluetooth on it... A card?
Which one?
My current cell phone is a Motorola V551 and has bluetooth. I want to
download some pictures, contacts off of it onto my Lap before I get a
new cell phone... ...

Any help would be great..

Thanks,

Glee

The cheapest solution to add Bluetooth is a USB dongle. However, are you
sure your cell phone will support downloading to a PC via Bluetooth? A lot
of cell companies don't enable this function to force you to use their
service.

I'm not sure... Maybe I should check with AT&T forums and ask there..
Sometimes I can get an answer, but they always want u to buy it from
them... Where can I buy a usb dongle? And I'm not sure if my phone
has a usb port on it... However, there is a bluetooth setting that I
can set to search for bluetooth on a PC.. But because my lap does not
have it, then it can't find it.

thanks

The dongle goes on the PC. Software comes with it to enable the Bluetooth
services on the PC. The phone already has Bluetooth so doesn't need
anything.
To buy a Bluetooth USB dongle, try any computer stores near you; or look
around on line; around $20-$30 I think.
