Default Nokia 6600 Bluetooth connection to PC (very easy)

Ive just connected my 6600 to the pc with a bluetooth adaptor but after reading several different posts saying it was awkward to set-up i was VERY VERY impressed with how easy the one i used was.

Its the TDK USB Adaptor+, cost me about £20 from a friend in the trade.

Installed software, plugged in the USB, sent the picture via Bluetooth and Voila!!!

The hardest part LOL was finding where the image had been saved as i was expecting a shortcut on the desktop, embarrassingly it had been saved in My Documents.

Just thought id share that with you guys

I feel I'm being gloated at

Nevertheless, I'm glad your set up was easy. Something this simple ought to be.

Mine is working fine now but it does take an amount of fiddling each time to get it going.

Looks Like TDK is the way to go then

Had no end of problems trying to set one of these things up on a Belkin USB Bluetooth adapter. Got it going in the end, but if I said it was plug & play, I'd be lyin...

Sorry guys :P The TDK one was soooo easy, running Windows XP Home Edition. I was seriously worried it was going to be a pain cos of the horror stories. Having said that, everyone i spoke to had tried the Belkin one :|

TDK is the way to go if youre considering this me thinks
