In common with most people, I don't like spending out money that I don't have to!!!! I bought a Smart Modular Technologies USB BT dongle to attach to my laptop and would like to know if anyone has any advice on running the dongle on an e400 via the synchcable (about £20 for the dongle and a female to female adapter is a helluva lot cheaper than the £70+ Tosh want for a BT SD card). Also if anyone knows where to get drivers for a Pocketop IR keyboard, I would be grateful. Those lovely people at Dixons sold me the keyboard claiming it was compatible but I now find I have to PAY for the driver!!!!

Cheers

if it is a CSR chipset based dongle try following these instructions and then plug it into the usb port... http://discussion.brighthand.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=104328

You may find that you need to get the actual USB host cable for your e400 for this to work. I'm nat sure that adding an adapter to the sync cable is going to give you access to the dongle.
