Opinions are like a-holes... everybody's got one. Have you actually
used Blue Soeil? If not, shutup!

Yes, I have actually used Blue Soliel - for one frustrating week until I
was able to convert the dongle to work with the Widcomm stack. If I
hadn't I couldn't have a valid opinion on it. I found Blue Soliel to be
much more difficult to work with than the Widcomm/Broadcomm stack.
Apparently others agree as the price for a dongle with the Widcomm stack
is usually a few dollars more. If you're happy with Blue Soleil then
that's good for you. Have you ever used the Widcomm stack? If not,
rather than tell you to "shutup" I'll just suggest you try it and see
for yourself. If you have tried it and didn't like the extremely easy
"My Bluetooth Places" interface please tell us what you found to be
better in Blue Soleil.

Well, first let me apologize for telling you to shutup. That was
totally unnecessary on my part. And yes I did try the Widcomm/Broadcom
stack and had a lot of trouble connecting my stereo headset and
cellphone (connected as a DUN) at the same time (the dongle is version
2.0). I purchased another BT adaptor (version 2.0) that came with Blue
Soleil and it worked like BT is supposed to work (PNP). Plus, I love
the graphic connection interface! FWIW, I only paid $2.99 + $4.25 S&H
for the new dongle/SW off eBay - good 'bang-for-the-buck' IMHO.
