that's like asking what walkman do i have to buy to listen to 97.1 FM .... they all work as long as you are in range... :roll: samething goes for bluetooth... it's a radio.. you just need another transceiver which works on the same frequency as your PDA and in that case it's all of them!

dont buy the cheepest adapter you find. also keep in mind that some adapters have 10 meters of range while some have 100meters.

I assume you mean you are going to buy a BT adapter for your PC, so you can connect with your 1945. As was mentioned, BT is BT, but profile sets and support software vary widely. Tends to be you get what you pay for. Belkin is supposed to be good. I have good things to say about my Linksys and my Billionton ones. I had an Ambicom. I wouldn't have another. I use a Socket CF in my Axim now and again and that works quite well, and that same CF card in an adapter works well in a laptop. Something to consider if that is the target PC, is that it doesn't stick out like a USB one would.

i heard good things about belkin too. i bought MSI because it was half price compared to Belkin, but i did the wrong choice. i had problems a couple of times with the drivers. and i cant find the updated drivers in the manifucturers site.
