I just got my HP H2210 today (coolest PDA I've ever played with), everything is great, except I can't connect to the internet through my Microsoft Bluetooth Conection, I have the wireless keyboard mouse setup. I heard that maybe they were working on a work around or new drivers or the microsoft setup but I cant find anything...so am I screwed and have to buy another bluetooth access point? When I search my computer for services offered from my h2210 it says none are offered. Please help I need web access! Thanks.

Congratulations on your new Pocket PC! On other news, sorry... You're out of luck. Microsoft Bluetooth implementation does not offer the services your Pocket PC needs to connect to a computer.

I've tested the Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse with other another Bluetooth adapter (using the beta widcomm 1.4 TDK) and they work fine. I haven't heard any news on Microsoft doing an update on this, yet.

Have a look in this article for more information.

what do you recommend for a new BT reciever, OR should I just get a CF Wi-Fi card for my H2210 to get into my exsisting WiFi network? Thanks for your help.

I have a TDK and a Bluetake at home (look in our reviews and they're very good.

We're also running the bluetooth competitions and will give three Bluetooth USB adapters during the next few weeks - look in our home page and enter the competition, you might be lucky...

If you're not planning to use a Bluetooth mobile phone, you could go wi-fi. But for greater flexibility I'd go Bluetooth.
