    I've recently bought a Sony bluetooth MemoryStick to use with my Clie PDA. It works fine connecting to my Nokia mobile phone. I'd like to be able to use it to do the same with my Sony laptop.

    Sony don't provide any drivers for this, preferring to sell me a bluetooth USB dongle. Since the MemoryStick slot seems to run off the USB bus, anyway, I don't see why it shouldn't be possible to have drivers that will use the bluetooth MS. It's way beyond my ability to write them but somebody far more able may have addressed this situation already.

    Does anyone know if such exist (my laptop runs Windows 2000)?

    If not, it looks like I'll need to buy myself a dongle:(

    Moving this from 2K to the hardware section and bumping it to the top of the list. Hopefully an answer for you from there.

    I was wondering if it would be better there, but thought I'd try W2k first.

    Thanks.
