Hey has anyone seen one of these? Its a bluetooth access point which connects to a cable/adsl modem, just like the wifi, but abit slower. I was reading a review on one on an Australian PC magazine called APC. Its only meant to go at 1mb/sec I think. But like most things it will be improved. It'll be great for people who own bluetooth enabled pda's without the wifi stuff. Here are the specs below...

Specifications:
o Range 100 metre (free air)
o Operating System Win98SE/ME/2000/XP
o Sensitivity -70dBm @0.1BER
o Data transfer Rate up to 1 Mbps
o Number of Appliances Maximum of 7 devices
o Ports Provides a 10/100 Ethernet port
o Frequencies 2.4Ghz~2.483 Frequency hopping spread spectrum
o Supports BlueTooth LAN access profile.
o Weight 275 Grams
