I seem to recall buying something like that from EnGenius

Even if they don't list a combo bluetooth mini-PCI module, they might be able to direct you in a useful manner.

Another tack: isn't there an internal BT option card for that notebook? All of the ones (Dell) I've used here have all had an internal connector for optional BT. And the BT cards for them are on eBay (cheap!).

Yours isn't a Dell, but.. worth checking that possibility.

I believe these devices predate ubiquitous bluetooth, so I don't think there's an internal connector for one in there. I will look, though.

I'm seeing this one is a valid device:

http://www.pcplanetsystems.com/abc/product_details.php?item_id=2414&category_id=229

But that web site looks very shady, to the point where I'm not confident to give them my credit card number. All the reputable sites which list that same card all say Out Of Stock. Still searching...

The junk shop around the corner from us has a bin full of old mini-PCI and mini-PCIe cards, $5/each. Unfortunately, they're only open Fridays, and this Friday is a holiday (closed).

But if you're still hunting a week and a bit from now, email/PM me a reminder and I'll dig through the bin and see what's there. Postage from me to you is only a buck or so. smile

Cheers
