Hahaha, its 6:30am, I still didnt go to bed yet, just bought an H1940 Ipaq and a USB class1 bluetooth dongle for my pc, spent the whole nite trying to get this stuff working, then saw a link to this site, 4 mins later... baam wireless post :D

It is actually amazing how fast bluetooth is, when connected with a USB cable via ActiveSync the speed is like 1/10th of Bluetooth that I have now. I am streaming live audio @ 128kbits, while browsing the net, and talking on msn messenger. Craaazie stuff lol. The only problem is that the range kinda sucks, it sais up to 100meters, but my PC is on 3rd floor of the house, if I go to the 1st floor, the signal is very weak, and sometimes disconects. Too bad I cant put my PC on second floor hehehe.


Anyways, thank you very much guys, I owe ya all a beer!


(BTW, I got InstantPAN bluetooth dongle, and it came with WIDCOMM 1.3.2.7, should I upgrade to a higher version? Would the range increase? Any thoughts?)

Great stuff! Good to know of positive results.

Answering your questions, no gain in range by updating the software, and 1.3 is quite stable, so keep it... (this was, too, posted via Bluetooth)
