Which Blue Tooth Adapter? |

Hello,
Could someone recommend a blue tooth adapter for my P800. I'm after one that is easy to carry around, maybe easy to fit on a key-ring, and has a 100m range. Is there any particular version I should be looking at?
I quite like the look and price of the Blue Monkey USB adapter. Anyone got it, and rate it? Does it have a reasonable range (I can't find much info online about it)? Does anyone have a URL for the Blue Monkey website? It's £35 on Expansys, Anyone bought it elsewhere cheaper?
I know there are already reviews of hardware/software already on Esato, is there any scope for reviews of this sort of thing?
Thanks for any help,
Jon |

I've just ordered the MSI 6967 from www.microdirect.co.uk for £36.43 including delivery. It's had a good write-up by people on here, from what I can see, and it seems that it supports the headset profile. The range I've seen quoted varies from 10m to 200m, but since the P800 only reaches 10m, it's not a huge deal for me. Now, I'm just waiting for my P800 and the adapter to arrive...
(By the way, www.komplett.co.uk have it for about a quid cheaper, but no stock.)

My MSI 6967 arrived today. I've set it up with the latest official drivers from www.msi.com.tw, and my first impressions are good. I can get a connection with my R520 two floors down, and I've got Mobile Phone Monitor, DUN and OBEX (business cards, etc.) working. If/when I get a BT headset, I might try the modified drivers that c0mm0n released on www.bluetoothguide.com, but for the moment I'm happy with the official ones. I'll let you know about how well things work with a P800 when mine arrives on Monday/Tuesday  |
