i have very little knowledge on bluetooth and networks, now I have a new phone, the T610. I want to be able to communicate with my computer. In order to do that I need to install mobile phone monitor. I did so, and it appeared in the control panel as it should. I've opened the COM port also and everything else works fine. Now I have little knowledge about bluetooth, but I reckon my laptop needs to have bluetooth as well in order to communicate with the phone. As far as I know I don't have infrared on my laptop, and I'm not sure about the bluetooth. If it is there on the laptop it should be somewhere where I could turn it on. How can I check if my laptop has it? And if not, what should I buy? Recommendations? A simple bluetooth USB receiver or something?

As far as i no laptops dont ship as standard with blue tooht. You need to buy a dongle, im getting one for around 15 GBP, not too expensive.

You can buy a USB Bluetooth adapter for GBP 10-20 from any computer supply company.
I just bought a Belkin one, but it hasn't arrived yet.

Check Control Panel - System - Hardware - If you find somewhere there bluetooth you have it. If not, theres no problem to buy USB dongle for a bit. Or buy data cable for less. But I would recommend
no cellphone...
