Sure. I did try to install the bluetooth software for the Dell Mini 9 but as soon as it starts it reads " FN F2 to start bluetooth service" and the only option button is to cancel the install.

None that I know of.

Download and use R192570 which will add the utility to turn on/off wifi and Bluetooth.
I spent days looking for a solution as I downloaded the battery meter update which didn't include the wireless utility.
Once installed hit FN+2 to get it up, turn it on then install the BT Drivers from Dell.
Search for the link on Google as they move the files around
