Re: Bluetoot, XP Pro, and our cell phones

["Bob Crothers" <bob2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You need a bluetooth receiver on your PC.  Then it should show up in your
control panel. 

It is common for laptops to have Bluetooth...but I've not seen a lot of
desktops that do.

With a Treo anyway, you can use a USB cable between the Cell Phone and PC.
It is also faster than Bluetooth.
