Bluetooth for Desktops

[cdaveyj]

I've been looking all over the internet for someway to put bluetooth into a desktop. I'm planning on building a desktop and I really want to have internal bluetooth, but I can't figure out how to do it. Does it come as part of the wireless card? I would really like to avoid a dongle or an external reciever, in my opinion that really defeats the points of having bluetooth in the first place. I'll buy one if I have to, but again, if there is an internal bluetooth card for desktops please send me a link to where I can buy one.

You could always get a USB dongle, tape it somewhere inside your case and connect it to one of the USB headers on your motherboard...

The easiest way to get internal bluetooth is to purchase a cheap USB PCI card that has an internal USB port and then install a small USB bluetooth dongle on the internal port.
