    I'm not sure where I should put this but here it goes.

    What I want to be able to do is have my phone connected to my laptop via bluetooth. I want to be able to make phonecalls from my computers and use my headset on my computer to talk to people. Is there a software or something that can help me with this?

    Reason being is because I'm usually on my computer playing a game or something and I miss a lot of phone calls cause my headsets on.

    Mine is done through the standard bluetooth software that you usually get, but I have a pocket PC so it might work differently.

    Once my phones been connected, I double click the bluetooth icon in the notification area by the clock and under audio I double click telephony audio gateway.
