Thanks. It sounds like there are no drivers for bluetooth dongles. Oh well, it's not the end of the world, grins, as the MPower has bluetooth built in, but I was curious into whether external bluetooth devices, like dongles, work, in case the bluetooth receiver in the MPower fails for some reason. Thanks for trying!
