www.maplin.co.uk are good, so are www.expansys.com

for mac or pc?

functionality will depend on software already on the machine which will probably support basic file transfer, or software that you can install, for backup, remote control etc

TDK is known to have good software, one of the only ones that support the headset profile.

Expansys.com have a few ones with damaged packaging that they sell cheaper. I got one from them yesterday, works just fine.

Heard some good reviews about the MSI bluetooth dongle and it's only 50 €.

Just wanted to double check everyone or anyone with the Ericsson T610 could you tell me if you bluetooth dongle is working 100% and which one it is ?

As i have heard with the nokia bluetooth phones certain dongles do not work with it.... will i get this problem with my Ericsson ?

Otherwise will purchase the MSI one tomorrow.

Thanks

If it is any help to you, the Billionton dongle works great with my T68i and my P800, took a fair bit of screwing around to get it there though.
