I do most of my work on a laptop that I bought about two years ago. I don’t think it was a newer model, because it didn’t come with Bluetooth. Remember a few years ago when everyone was in a Bluetooth frenzy? These days, practically everything has Bluetooth as a standard feature, whether it needs it or not.

Fortunately, companies like Com One is here for those who missed the Bluetooth train after purchasing a PC or laptop. Their Bluetooth USB Adapter plugs in, and can sync with Bluetooth devices.

I had a chance to try out Com One’s Bluetooth USB Adapter, and now I am a Bluetooth addict. I was hoping that it would easily plug and play, but there was the obligatory CD that came with it. After a loading process that wasn’t too long, I was able to get it working.

It created a Bluetooth Exchange Folder on my computer, so I was able to Beam files from my mobile phone right to my computer, something that I had never been able to do before without a wire of some kind. The range of this device is about 330 feet.

The Bluetooth USB Adapter is available off of the Com One website, along with the Combo Bluetooth 2.0 EDR and SD card reader dongle, which allows Bluetooth capability as well as memory card reading.
