Hey
Im thinking of buying the Microsoft bluetooth Keyboard, bluetooth mouse and bluetooth adapter.
I was wondering if anyone here has got it and if the adapter synchs ok with a Nokia 7650?
Thanks guys

hey,
also with BT mice and KB, what happens if your installing windows? there would have been no drivers installed so would it be possible to even use a bluetooth kb and mouse in a "dos" like mode?when installing windows for example?
as for the Micsosoft KB and Mouse, is it possible for it to work with exosting BT adapters? or would i have to use the Microsoft BT adapter?
Thanks guys

The MS bluetooth reciever doesn't support the profiles needed to sync. It only does dial-up networking, printing and HID devices (keyboard, mouse,etc).

I have the mouse. The MS-adapter only supports the dialup, so for my T68i, I keep using my MSI key for the moment. The MSI key don't support the mouse, I think because it requires authentication by password whereas the mouse does not seem to support that (no, the code is not 0000)...
But you need to have at least a(nother) keyboard to be able to install it, but this wasn't a problem on my laptop 
Other than that, it works fine  |

ok, so if i had a bluetooth KB as well (and nothing else) i would not be ablt to install it as NOTHING will be recognised until drivers are installed? so if a recovery is needed (format and windows install) then what would happen!!!?? No KB and Mouse to set up windows!!!???
Thanks

That's probably right  But I'm sure they'll add native support in the next version of Windows |

BT support is in XP service pack 1.
Note only possible to use MS BT keyboard/mouse with MS XP+ SP1. |
