#1 Post by ThinkPad » Fri Apr 01, 2005 5:57 am

Is there anyway to hook up blue tooth on my T-41?

If I understand correctly you want to use a BlueTooth enabled device with your T-41 which is BlueToothless? I suggest a USB BlueTooth adapter along the lines of the D-Link DBT-120 or similar.

Yes, my T-41 does not have bluetooth. I like that item, but is there possible a PC card or something along those lines which would'nt stick out as much.

And how about T42 FVU? I want to upgrade Bluetooth. But don't know does T42 have any slot?

The fvu already has bluetotth antenna installed. All you need to do is to purchase the bluetooth / modem CDC and replace the current one that has only the modem.

The slot is on the upper left part under the keyboard.

Your T41 already has the Bluetooth antenna installed. You need only purchase the Bluetooth/Modem daughter card from IBM parts and install it.
