Hi

over @ PC.Zone

*Chronos Bluetooth Adapter 10M @ R149

*IDream Bluetooh Adapter 10m @ R149

*MSI Bluetooh Adapter 10m @ R199

However if u spend R200 or more u can get one for R99 [note sure which one though]

if someone can beat those prices then i will be the second customer in line

If you are going to use it with Nokia Smart Suite make sure it uses the Widcom (sp) drivers as that is all that nokia suport.

I tried 3 before I found one that works.
Settled on the X-Micro Bluetooth 2.
I can't remember the price, but I haven't had a moments hassle so it was worth it.

Can't beat those prices...

R150 for Chronos Bluetooth Dongle from Vodacom store in Gateway Durban, just bought 2 about half an hour ago.

Its not worth buying that online. Local PC store should have them for round R150

There's a store near cresta that sells a 100m one for around R190.
Cant remember their name though....

You can get the Linksys 100m Bluetooth dongle for R421 at Digital Planet. What a bargain .... NOT!

R80 from Frontier was there the other day and bought one.

Will the frontier dongle work with Nokia PC Suite coz thats what I'm getting it for?

 

[Nameite]

Damn, thats one awesome site for good deals....

 

[feo]

Where exactly is frontier located? lazy to check their site? oh and check my previous post as well....and these 100m bluetooth dongles?? i thought bluetooth only work on short ranges like up to 10m or something?

bluetooth has 3 classes, the last class is 10metres which are used in cellphones and headsets.
class 2 is 20 to 50metres
and class 1 is about 100metres...depending whats in between.
Its useful when u dont want to use it for large file transfers....770kbits hehe.

Frontier is somewhere in JHB, they deliver too~
