Cellular Phone Forum / General / Bluetooth / August 2004Survey: Who has the lowest cost BT-Data device? Exclude voice-only devices like headsets please.
I wish Radio-Shack ""Made/Designed"" their own brand of cellphones. They would know how to scrap BT and we could replace it with something good and simple to get the price down! Just venting.. jim > I wish Radio-Shack ""Made/Designed"" their own brand of cellphones.

Are there any BT-data products under say US$50? dongles, pcmcia, adaptors...... Thanks for any replys! Jim > Are there any BT-data products under say US$50? > dongles, pcmcia, adaptors...... > Thanks for any replys! > Jim I use a D-Link BlueTooth Dongle on my Dell PC. It was $39.99 at CompUSA. <http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=307822&pfp =SEARCH> I have no relationship to DLink other than their BT Dongle works good on my Dell, and also comes with Macintosh drivers for older Macs. Bluetooth is built into my Macintosh G5. Thanks for that info. I just don't see how D-link sells a US$39 BT-dongle! I want to put BT in a design, but the cheapest chipset I can find is EU$70 from http://www.btdesigner.com/modules.htm My God, why don't I just break apart Dlink dongles and sell pieces as BT-Modules! Anyone know of cheap BT chip suppliers! Thanks for any replys.... Jim Well the dongle I use cost ?14 ukp from a local computer fair, came with the Widcomm software, and works perfectly with WinXP SP2, the Plantronics BT Headset I have also cost ?39 from a internet supplier - www.ebuyer.com just does say that BT prices are good now. > Thanks for that info. > I just don't see how D-link sells a US$39 BT-dongle!
