Currently I use my laptop to send things to my phone via infrared. I want to get IR on my desktop machine. Can anyone recommend what IR adaptor to get. I don't want to spend out on one which doesn't work with my phone and my girlfriends phone which is a Nokia 3650.

Or maybe a bluetooth adaptor would be a better idea?

Cheers

You have probably found that the IR on your laptop works with both phones and it will be the same with something you add-on to your desktop because it is a standard.

IMHO you can't go too wrong with Actisys products such as this one

I just found this:

Bluetooth Adaptor at Mobile Fun

Do you think this would be okay?

assuming the nokia has bluetooth then that should do you though in my experience you will have a lot less hassles setting up IR.

Shame they are pointing at the wrong part of the T68i!

The IR port is on the right hand side!

i have an IR adaptor usin it for over a year have used it with T39, T68m, T68i, T300, and T610, it works fantastic! it supports all sorts of object puch etc...
i have never had any problems except some minor one usin it with the T300!
i got the adaptor from www.mobileaction.com
CPW probably sell it too!
you will also get a software to back up yr Phonebook, calender and sms!
