Hi all,

I need to buy a new PDA for an executive at work....he currently has a HP Journada, but the socket connection in the bottom of it is fooked.....I was looking at the new Compaq Ipaq H3870 with built in Bluetooth.....can I put a bluetooth PCi card (is there such a thing?) into his Desktop PC and his Secretary's desktop PC to allow for wireless HotSync'ing?

Does Active Sync work with bluetooth?

I thank you.....

Have a look at the Fujitsu Siemens PocketLOOX. It does all that you specify above and is far better !!

Sorry....just read website properly

They do have bluetooth...how much is the GPRS add on?

And how do you sync to PC's using bluetooth....PC's must have to have a Bluey card too????

Yeah you need a bluetooth card in the relevant PC you are syncing to unless its an FSC B series Lifebook that has it built in !!

The GPRs module is not available yet - will be in a matter of a couple of months, and i was told that the PDAs are generally available from June.

Cant resist a free plug !!!!!!!!
