Bluetooth Just got a new fone with this on but dunno what its all about. The guy in the shop was nearly w*nking over it :spangled: Anyone giv me the dumb guide to what it does/how it works please??
Re: Bluetooth it's a new method of wireless connection between 2 devices, ie phone to laptop, saves all the hassle with the wires and stuff. I use it all the time with work, it's good.
bluetooth = wireless network if someone in the wireless range of your bluetooth device, has a compatible bluetooth device, you can send files etc, via the wireless network. it costs nothing to use bluetooth. i have a bluetooth port on my pc, so i can download tunes etc for nothing on my pc, then send em to my fone via bluetooth.
It's wireless networking. Means you can connect your phone to any bluetooth enabled PC within about 10ft I think. Most people use em with wireless hands free kits
Similar concept aye but its loads faster and has much better range. You will need a bluetooth adapter for your pc, and then just find whatever you want to send and just select "send via bluetooth" I have been pretty general here cos it can differ from phone to phone, but thats basically what you need to do its easy once you know how
Infra-red needs a direct line of sight connection where Bluetooth doesn't matter as long as it's within the perimeter. PC adaptor cards go for around £50
No idea. Just had a quick look on PC World site and they did cards and USB adapters for 59.99 so they must be £10-£20 cheaper elsewhere.
aye, pc world rip you royally. They tried to charge me 12 quid for a 2 metre usb cable! www.overclockers.co.uk
the only thing i have ever taken the warranty on is my laptop, as they said it was part of the interest free deal i took. i later found out that that is illegal, but since its almost paid for I can't be arsed to make a fuss. Never mind....Its covererd for 3 years, theft cover is for a year. I'm paranoid my laptop is going to get stolen from me sometime in August........
I didn't/wouldn't suggest PC World. I just used the site for reference. I buy all my parts from Computer Orbit. 2 minutes from my front door and cheap as chips.
