    ACER? You should have the part number in the SG. Contact Acer and ask them for price...

    BigO recommends a ebay seller name OldEgg to everyone, saying he deals in OEM BT modules.

    Or you've got acerparts/notebook solutions (search the part no. on their sites).

    Heyhey

    Shameless bump for this.

    I recently got the 5930g, and was gutted to discover it didnt have bluetooth when i understood that it did!

    Could anyone supply anything more specific on finding an internal bluetooth module for this laptop? Would be greatly appreciated!

    Depending on which version of 5930G you get.

    The version that comes with P7350 CPU costs about 600 pounds in UK.
    I think there's a version with P8400 cpu, 4 GB of RAM, 320 GB hdd (the faster 5400 rpm) and a bluetooth (I think) among other goodies.
    Problem is, for now the version with P7350 is the one that is available in UK.
    Other countries got their little hands on other versions with P8400 P8600 and T9000 if I'm not mistaken.
