Better Bluetooth CF Card

[DiGiTYZED]

Can someone recommend a good bluetooth compact flash card???

I currently have a Ambicom BT2000C-CF Bluetooth Compact Flash card and it's limited (doesn't support many BT profiles). I'm not satisfied with it (plus they don't update drivers frequently).

TIA

I've heard nothing but good things about Socket's (http://www.socketcom.com/product/bluetooth.asp). :)

Does this support the headset profile in any way possible (even thru some hack)?

What's the pros and cons of Socket's BT CF card?

TIA

I will agree completely with Janak, Socket's products and support for them are second-to-none.

No, it doesn't. As far as I know, audio isn't routed over the CF slot in the first place to be able to provide a headset profile. :(

Apart from good driver support, a "pro" is that there is no protruding antenna.

The only "con" I can think of is that if you want to use it with a desktop, you need to get a separate model with a CF-to-PC adapter and desktop drivers, which costs a little more, i.e., the desktop drivers aren't bundled with the base model. The link I provided shows both units.

i already have a belkin bluetooth usb adapter for desktop, so i don't need the cf to pc adapter. plus i never used the cf adapter that came with my ambicom bt cf card anyway.

are the PPC drivers for Socket BT CF card frequently updated and available through their website? (if so, where? cuz I couldn't find them)
