Hi,
I am just now catching up with my email. A while back I posted a
way to connect the PK to your active sync via blutooth. I found that the
key for me was to figure out how to disable the windows xp driver for the
blue tooth dongle. Then enable or reinstall the manufactures driver again.
The windows xp service pack 2 bluetooth driver over rides the manufactures
driver. This happens even if you install the driver after the service pack.
If you guys are interested I can dig up how I did this. I hope this can
help.
Scott

I don't know. I have been using the good ol fashioned cable to do all of
this. You have to get the two of them to pair and I know on my computer, at
least when you try to sync using bluetooth it keeps asking for a pass key
and then when I ask it to choose one on its own, it just sits there.
I haven't got a wifi card, otherwise that is how I would go about things
then Icould use the pk in either of my two bedrooms.
