Im using Irda on my Laptop, but Im consider to buy a DRS-10/11 so I can use it on my desktop to.
On the lap Im using XTNDConnect to sync it with outlook (contacts, and appointments)
And for file transfer the XP send file appl.

I use a IrDA adaptor hooked up to my home PC! I'm just using the software that is on the SonyEricsson website for all my contacts and images. The software is very useful for updating and synchronising your contacts/sms/calendar. Use MyPictures to send or backup all your pics.
I got a USB-IrDA adaptor from Maplin for aroun £40 but you can get it cheaper via mail order!

BazBoy,
B4 I bought mine, I was thinking of buying the MA600 IrDA adaptor kit! It can be used for other mobile phones (as well as your T68 ) with IR and it comes a CD-ROM full of data suites for nearly all phones. You can also download latest version of the software from their website too. You can buy this at www.scan.co.uk!
I cant remember the MA600 manufaturers website but do a search on MA600 on the web and you'll find it!
Must admit I actually didnt like the software and thought the ericsson stuff was much better so if you can try and use it on another PC to see if its just not your setup!
Hope this helps! |

I just use the IrDA on the laptop, no need for any SE software. |

I'm using the 3COM USB Bluetooth adapter. it's working like a charm.
Only problem is that I can't have it automaticly sync. when its in range, due to the fact that the Ericsson monitor forces the 3com software to issue a message box each time it checks for the phone and cant find it(I have to press ok). After a few minutes, this amounts to a helluva lotta messages, which in turn make the 3com software crash.
That is the only problem though, that I have to enable synchronization manually.
