    Hi guys,

    Newbie here switched from Treo 650 to BB 8310. The Treo 650 I had was with Verizon and that phone isn't really a smart phone but a handicapped smart phone (that's what I called it) because the bluetooth device isn't really any good it's only good for ear phone or bluetooth gps receiver. I've purchased a bluetooth receiver for my desktop and my treo 650 (verizon) didn't recognize it and I was told by the verizon ppl that you can't send and receive data via bluetooth with my phone.

    My question is...
    Would I be able to use my BB 8310 (att) to send and receive data if i have a bluetooth receive on my desktop? If so how fast is it?

    Yes you can! !

    First you have to pair the 8310 with the Laptop/ Desktop. First switch on the Bluetooth Receiver/ Transmitter on you Desktop. Then go to Set Up Bluetooth on the BB/ Menu button/ Add Device.. Enter a number and send, confirm the pairing by entering the same number on the desktop.

    Now you can send & receive data on your desktop and BB

    The speed will be the same as the type of bluetooth dongle, either USB 1.1 or USB 2.0.
