EASE OF USE
Once installed and set-up it’s really easy to use. Just place your Infra-Red device infront of the unit and it picks it straight up. Simply send or receive your files at will.
RELIABILITY

...I have had this little product for about 4 Months now and I can say it is a wonderful little thing.
The model I have is the:
Belkin Bluetooth USBAdapter * Class 2; v1.2 10m
This model is currently available for £8.99 on amazon (£3 cheaper than what I paid for it) and I can say it is the best thing I have bought.

...Hi all
I’ve recently acquired a new mobile phone with Bluetooth capability and wanted to be able to transfer data between the phone and my pc so I went looking for a Bluetooth adapter and settled on a Belkin Bluetooth USBadapter model #F8T003uk with a 10m range (33 feet).
This adapter has allowed me to do everything that I wanted it to do. Like transferring pictures, ring tones, games, contact details. It allows up to 7 Bluetooth device’s to be connected at once and if you’re like me and all the boy’s/girl’s visit of a Saturday night then they can all be connected to your pc at the same time to send them all files that they might want.
I don’t use the adapter for anything else but it boast’s a lot of features like being able to connect to any Bluetooth v1.1 compliant device such as Printers, Pc’s, Notebooks, PDA’s and Mobiles etc...
