pls. have a look into the readme file that you may open when you finished installation of PC Suite (at least in version 1.5.1). The file should be as well availlable on your PC.

It's in the part dealing with connecting the TDK BT card to the P800 after both have been paired.

Quote from chapter 6.3.1:
"15. Now you will probably get a dialog telling you that the Bluetooth
Serial Port failed: The remote device closed the connection.
This is correct behaviour. (See the info 6.3)
"

Quote from chapter 6.3:
"Info:
When you connect a computer with P800 over Bluetooth then two COM ports are involved. First the computer uses a COM port to connect to P800. When this happens P800 will close that connection and open a new connection, which will be used for PC Connect (Synchronisations and file transfer).
"

PS: I usually don't read these readme files, but as I was desperately trying to solve a similar problem related to COM ports not being discovered by the phone connection link, there I did read everything!!
