Belkin - Network adapter - CardBus - BluetoothBrand: Belkin Warranty: 1 year warranty
Lacks Mouse Support [Posted on 2002-12-04] Having recently purchased both the Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse Explorer for Bluetooth and the Belkin Bluetooth card I was hoping for compatibility between the two. I could not locate presales literature for either device indicating compatibility. Net result is that the PC card does not have the "input device" (according to Microsoft phone support), service needed by the mouse, therefore your mouse will not work with the Belkin card. Belkin phone technical service says they will have a software upgrade to support Bluetooth mice by March 2003. One additional challenge is that the driver software is not signed. It will still load on Windows XP if you allow it. Driver upgrade is confusing. The driver upgrade from Belkin, Version 1.2.2.4c, when loaded indicates that it is Version 1.2.1.20, which is the same as the old version. Technical support says that the new driver is loaded but they "forgot" to update the version number. Good points - simple to install if you follow the directions, small and sturdy form factor, easy to contact support, good price.
Good and stable Bluetooth Card [Posted on 2005-02-12] This pcmcia card is provided with the Belkin customized Widcomm drivers 1.2.2.4c. The installation in WinXP is smooth and flawless, and you can start to play with your bluetooth devices in a second. Works great with SonyEricsson and Motorola phones, and file transfer between pcs is fast and easy.
