Tony Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Hi allI am thinking of buying a USB Blue Tooth dongle so i can connect my motorola RazR V3 phone to the computer.I have been looking on ebay and there are sh*t loads of them for next to nothing example sorry it is in German, but you will get the idea.Now for my question do you think that the cheap ones are any good? are they worth buying?CheersTony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-pops- Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 In a previous thread here I said (facetiouly) that a dongle was a daft name given because someone couldn't be bothered to think of anything else.Well, according to dadyassa's reference, above, it appears I was more or less right. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fits in with all those other useful words like, gazunder, gizmo, doodah etc. Have used them a lot in my time. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
