Latitude E6400 Bluetooth
I purchased a Dell Latitude E6400 from a friend, but I am unsure if it has bluetooth. I see the bluetooth logo above F1, but I see no hotkey on my F keys (F1, F2, etc) to enable bluetooth. I also believe that this laptop has the option to enter my SIM card and receive data, but I have been unable to get this to work.
I believe both the features listed are optional, how can I find out 100% if the laptop has bluetooth, and is able to use the SIM card (I know there is a SIM card slot, I entered my card, and downloaded the Dell Mobile Broadband Managers which says"The mobiel broadband device is not communicating). I know I saw that bluetooth was enabled in the BIOS, but wasn't sure if that was just a general BIOS for this laptop regardless if your model came with it (I also saw camera enabled, but I definitely don't have a camera).
Am able to provide my service code, or serial number to verify this information? I'm running Windows 7 by the way. Thanks for all the help!

Hi Tr33x0rs,
Please provide the system service tag through a private message. I will check the Bluetooth and Mobile Broadband options and revert to you.

I have a similar issue - in that Bluetooth is not working, but I know why.
Resorted to opening up the laptop (back case off) to confirm that there is no mini-card installed.
I can see a lot of minicards on ebay - versions/models vary. P560G, M980G, M960G, YPFF.....
All quote BT v2.1 + EDR
What I'd like to know is what 370 mini-card is required ?
Which version/model is compatible with the E6400?
