thank u very much Yves for ur reply. I am not 100% sure but i dont think my
pc (running on XP) has bluetoth installed. how can i check on this please. If
not what is better, a bluetooth card or usb device as u mentioned. I would
like to keep costs as low as possible by doing this on my own but seeing as i
am not 100% on computer technicalities i'd really appreciate it if u could
explain how to go about this.
