Don:

I use my USB for ActiveSync already, and love it, especially when it connects automatically. What a cool idea to put into KeySoft! The problem is my computer does not have any serial ports, and it is a desktop, so it has no bluetooth. I want to avoid buying a USB to bluetooth adapter and get a usb to serial cable instead, so I can use the serial port on my BN for the Jaws Braille input function, though only if this option is cheaper.

Thanks, though, and have a great day,
Alex

Hi Alex,

You could use the usb cable which came with the MPower (I'm
assuming that is what you have), and use activesync to connect your pc and the MPower.

The activesync connection is quite fast and if you wish to access
the internet in some way from your MPower and via the laptop, that really might be the best
way to go. Personally, I like the usb activesync connection much
better than the serial one as it seems far more stable.

If you want a bluetooth connection, a lot of folks have had good
luck with the
Belkin adapter and also the DLink. Actually, many of the
bluetooth adapters will work with your laptop, the real question being the accessibility of the software
on the pc side.
