Default USB Dongle - what other uses does it have?

I've just bought a USB Bluetooth dongle to use alongside mobile PhoneTools &
my Motorola v600 phone , I just wondered what other features can I use with
my USB dongle (except with my phone of course

Thanks

I think it depends on the profiles the dongle offers, which depends on
its drivers. I expect it has the human interface profile, so you
might be able to use a BT mouse and keyboard. Might be able to use
your headset for chatting over IP.

I'm new to BT..

I'm looking to get the Iogear GBU311

Profiles listed on website says:

Generic Access,Serial Port,Dial-Up Networking,Fax,LAN,Object Push,File
Transfer,Synchronization

Is that fine if I want to use a headset and use Skype? And I guess Sync
will be for my T637

That will be perfect if you also use a headset BT 1.2 !!!

Do you know a Webshop able to ship it to France ? ?

1) GBU311 d'Iogear :
http://www.iogear.com/main.php?loc=product&Item=GBU311
2) USB-240 d'Anycom :
http://www.anycom.com/anycom/product...?prodid=cc3035
3) SP936B de Micronet :
http://www.micronet.info/Products/Bluetooth/SP936B.asp

Et sur Ebay les dongles USB BT 1.2 se font rares,
ou alors au même prix que le neuf + transport,
enfin, si c'est la seule solution...

Ou alors attendre quelques mois que les produits BT 2.0 sortent...

Bonne chance à toi également,
amicalement,
