Where and what kind?

i have xps laptop. Id like to get the bluetooth card for it. Cant find it on this site. Can anyone help me track it down. I dread having to call Dell to find out. Youd think it would be on this site somewhere..

thanks for the help.

they are on ebay but im not sure if i need the extra cable sold separate or not, can i use the 350? or do i have use the 300. Looks like i have the 10 pin connector already installed...

I just bought a 350 from Dell (around $95) last week.  Just call them up and they take the order well!

As far as the antenna, my XPS allready had it (Original Inspiron XPS) when I put in a 300.  The 350 upgrade was just a swap for the 300! Of course, new software for the Bluetooth 2.0 support.

Personally, I don't see why the $20 350s from EBay would be functionally different than from dell (I just didn't consider EBay when I got mine.)

Just a word of warning here.

Some Service Providers intentionally hamstring the bluetooth capabilities of the phones they sell (Verizon is probably one of the bigger offenders.)  So double check the phone and service provider so you can go in knowledgeable about the capabilities you will have.

I was one of the first to get the Motorola V710 (The first bluetooth capable phone Verizon Supported) and was pretty disappointed on how they crippled it. 

Buyer Beware!!
