    bluetooth software

    I need a *free* program to transfer files from my phone to my computer via bluetooth, bonus points if it can be accessed like a regular folder.. I've been looking for several days and all I could find were the ones that cost money :/

    Re: bluetooth software

    i can't find anything that is decent and free. i use bluesoleil which came free with a £5 dongle from argos. it might only be a fiver but is the best b/t dongle i've had and the bluesoleil software is streets better than whats on offer from the likes of belkin

    http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...EBLUETOOTH.htm

    ok ok, it's gone up by a pound.............i did get mine 6 months ago.........the one eyed prat & eyebrow man must have noticed and decreed that cheap b/t dongles must go up in price

    Hrmm?.. The built-in bluetooth stack provided by Vista and 7 can already copy files to and from bluetooth devices.
