> Bluetooth dongle for Mac OS X ?
Bookmark topic
Hey !
Where can I find a (cheap) USB-bluetooth dongle that works in Max OS X ?
The cheapest I've seen are about 90 euro, and that's but not really cheap..

I got a mitsumi one of ebay for about £35, and it works perfectly with all the features and i have no problems linking to my T610.
You could try somewhere like
http://www.dabs.com and they also sell them on the official Apple site store.
Good to see another Mac user on the boards

I just bought one at ebay as well !
So, do you normally need to install drivers for the dongle or does the bluetooth thing in OS X find the dongle when you plug it in ?

Drivers are not required in MacOS X. Just plug it in and it works (no messing around for days like on a PC!!)
After plugging it in, just go to the "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" found in Applications > Utilities. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on in your phone and that Visibility is set to Show Phone, then follow the on screen instructions. It's very simple.

Oh yes they are - they just come included in OS X - which is why you can't use all hardware with Macs.

Exactly, that's why I said they're not required... you've already got them.
