Hello everyone! Newly registered and already posting!

I will be getting a T610 within the next week or so (Singlepoint seems to be having problems obtaining stock.. so they say).

In the meantime i would like your opinion on the Epox dongle, link is below:

http://prices.cclcomputers.co.uk/specs/networkmodem/epox/bluetooth.htm

CClComputers is selling it for £25.85. Anyone else use this dongle for their T610?

If not this dongle which would you all recommend?

Much appreciated,

ThrillSeeker

Spend £10-£15 more and get something thats been tried and tested on these forums by other t610 users. Just read one of the bluetooth trouble shooting threads for possible contenders. I myself am on the lookout for a BT dongle to use with my t610 too.

After doing some enquiries i have learned that Ebuyer.com is not the best place to do your online shopping.. they have terrible customer and so on.

So iv come across another website with just as competitive prices...

http://www.savastore.com (its a division of watford electronics)

The MSI Dongle that i wanted to buy from ebuyer is also available from savastore.com and its cheaper! Only cheaper by about £1 i think! Also the delivery service is alot faster.

When i was on Ebuyer yesterday, ebuyer calculated next wednesday as delivery (£1.99 for delivery) date, which is around 7 days including sunday. Whereas savastore are charging about the same for delivery but claim they will deliver within 2-3 days.

Im not going to purchase the dongle until i get my T610 but i will let you know how it goes down with savastore. until then has anyone else had any experiences with savastore? Good or bad experiences?

The Epox dongle, is ok but the software that comes with it is crap, its very slow and the PC crashes when you boot up the first time, then when it starts up again it say "your PC has just recoverd from a fatal error" and then reports a driver error IE the epox driver !

The MSI dongle seems to be the best one available at a reasonable price.
