Tiny Bluetooth Adapter for your Laptop...

I saw the Rocketfish 2.1 Mini Bluetooth Module at Bestbuy for around $40.00
I got mine on ebay for $12.95 + $2.95 shipping!
Fits into your USB port and sticks out only a 1/4" (I have 4 USB Ports)
Has a tiny blue indicator light built into it to show you it's on.
I plugged it into my laptop, and Windows 7 automatically searched for the drivers, and i was good to go in a couple of minutes. I didn't even have to use the supplied Software CD that came with the Rocketfish.

Here is the info > http://www.rocketfishproducts.com/p-...b-adapter.aspx

This way, if you purchase a new Laptop, you don't have to look for one with a Bluetooth Card built in, and spend $100 more for the priviledge. And if you already have a Laptop without Bluetooth, just plug this baby in and you're good to go

How much did the Mini Bluetooth adapters used to be?
This is the first I had to research them because my previous laptop had Bluetooth built in.

It's been awhile since I looked for one, but when I did they were in the neighborhood of 80.00.

Whoaaa!
That may be why a lot of Laptops are not putting in Bluetooth cards. And if you want a Laptop with it built in, the Laptop will be about $100.00 more.
