Hi Dan, Maybe you can answer a question for me regarding bluetooth.
I can find my pc searching from the bn just fine. But, there are no services listed and only the message "unsupported' (without quotes), and if I go into the bluetooth area of control pannedl, there are no services listed there. Do you happen to know how one goes about adding services on the pc side of things? I'm using xp home service pack 2. The only comport which bluetooth seems to be looking at is com12. Do I need to point other things such as activesync to that port in order to get them to show up on the pc as services? Obviously, since I'm getting the unsupported message I can't connect to pair. Any help from you or someone else would be greatly appreciated. The bn, actually the MPower, sees my cell phone and my blue logger gps receiver just fine along with the services they offer. It's just the pc that seems to be the problem and I don't know how to fix it.

On mine, I use com7. Activesync defaults back to com1 constantly. Properties of the d-link under device manager or device settings should give you the com port info. Once you get the notetaker and the pc paired, you can connect with active sync to transfer files and use your computers internet connection to connect to the net or check email. Just make a new internet connection using ethernet as the device to use for connecting. that didn't make any sense to me at first, but it worked. When you do the pairing, initiate it from the braillenote side. The PC should respond by asking you if you want this device to connect, and ask you to enter a password or pen. Good luck with it. Bluetooth is pretty awesome. I use it all the time when I'm teaching. I walk around the room connected to the internet looking at the pages the kids are looking at on their pc's.
