Hey does anyone know of any good bluetooth adapters for the computer (for pc)? And if so does anyone know a good place to buy it (cheap is good)? Thanks.
...
do you know is there any important specs to look for when purchasing a bluetooth adapter...

it would be lice to get a bluetooth v1.2, but possibly only one on the market right now and I don't remember the make or model#. you can get the D-link DBT-120 at compusa for $29.99 - $10 rebate. it looks like a really good one has 128bit encryption and some other good features like it being have the size of a pack of bubblegum. I guess its that price while supplies last. good luck

and the Ambicom Compact flash card.
When shopping for a bluetooth adapter the import thing to look for is the supported profiles. They are not all supported by all devices.

The linksys has a great range upto 300 feet and does work with bluetooth headsets. (Class I = 100 meters, Class II is 10 meters)
I have yet to find a compact flash bluetooth adapte...
