bluetooth question

hi all, i use a linksys bluetooth adapter and the supplied software/driver + nokia pc suite to connect my laptop to my mobile to get on the net.

im fed up with the touchpad and want a mouse, i would like a bluetooth one so i dont have to use the remaining usb slot, but im not sure if you can be connected to more than one bluetooth device at once?

cheers in advance

Yes, you can connect more than one device, up to 7.

Only thing to worry about is using up too much bluetooth bandwidth eg net + edr headphones caused me problems. (choppy sound)

Yowsers!
I got 2 bluetooth devices, kboards and often use my nokia and satnav without issues.
I've got a bluetooth 2.1 adapter with them, sorts out range (30ft) and device recognition issues.

thats wicked news, cheers fellas!

i suppose a bluetooth hasnt got to much bandwidth spare as you say, shame they can upgrade the system in some way

Random curiosity question time... given the above bandwidth issues, is it possible to install multiple bluetooth adapters, and connect devices to different adapters?

Possibly just a late night (early morning) brain-fart, but just something that popped into my head

Yes you can connect multiple adapters and devices.
For the amount of data theses use there arent any bandwidth issues.
