It will be compatable, but the t68i and T610 only have a range of 10m so it is a bit of a waste of money.

I've got the Billington Class 1 USB BT adaptor and it works great. There's no use for the extended range though but maybe in the future phones will also support class 1 BT.

I paid money equivalent to about 50 Pounds for it India.

Considering that, its pretty cheap.

Another inherent advantage of BT dongles is that you don't have to confirm file transfers on the phone (unlike IR).

Ever since I've got the BT dongle, I've almost stopped using the IR-USB adaptor.
