I know that there are more than enough BT dongle's out there for the PC, but is there such a thing where you could plug in a BT adapter in the PCI slot of a PC? I don't really like the fact of having a dongle sticking out of the back of my PC, so is there such a thing where you could plug a BT adapter to a PCI slot and have a much cleaner look?

Have you tried this?
If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions.

you don't need to have it "sticking out on the backside"... buy a USB cable, let's say 1m, and connect between the BT dongle and the computer

That didn't really help either. And I did try it, thanks.

I am afraid you are out of luck then. It seems that none of the known bluetooth producers make a bluetooth PCI card... I found 1, but their reputation and quality is questionable at best
