Hi Anne:
I don't see a bluetooth extension that looks like a usb drive.  There's a usb 
thingie that looks like a serial to usb interface cable.  But I have a disk 
that says bluetooth, and a braille slip with the code on it.  So, I'll head for 
preferences and see how far I get.  
Thanks for the heads up.

Carolyn
