This seems like a nice USB Bluetooth adapter for $39:



Right, same piece that Belkin is selling for $59.99.

I saw a few posts around about the Belkin one, but couldn't exactly find the answer to my question: Can I transfer images and ringtones and stuff like that to and from the T68i and my PC? Can I use the internet via GPRS? Syncing address books with Outlook and stuff isn't really my priority since I dont use Outlook, though it would be cool if I could type out all the numbers into maybe a text file or something and transfer to and fro. I plan to pick up the camera attachment, so being able to transfer the pics to and fro is probably the most important task. What do you guys have to say?

Yes to all of the questions except the camera... I do not have a camera to try out, but I am sure it would work.

Hi

Don't panic just yet. The so called unlocked phone I bought over the internet turned out to be AT+T locked and everyone in Australia told me they couldn't unlock it. You can though. Buy a T28 data cable (not the t68i) and download a logger programme from logosunlimited on the web. Pay on the web for a logger code (they took about an hour to send mine by e-mail) and follow their instructions. It's easier than you think it's going to be.

I have the Belkin adaptor and after hours of trying to sort out what I thought were software problems have just discovered that I am getting a low signal strength no matter what i do with my adaptor.

I think I read another post about unlocking also by you - and today I did just what you suggested. I got the T28 data cable for a nice price of $5, and i'm waiting for my phone to actually arrive at my place - which should happen before the end of this week. Let's see. Fingers crossed!

Thanks!!
