    My Aspire 5735 doesn't have built in Bluetooth. I can get an internal Bluetooth module from Ebay for about £12. How easy will it be to fit? I'm reasonably technically competent, but haven't yet found out how to get into the guts of the machine :eek:

    I'm currently using a USB Bluetooth dongle, but would rather free up the port.

    I have the same issue with my Aspire 5634, it has a bluetooth switch but no onboard bluetooth device.

    Been having to make do with a D-Link bluetooth dongle which does the trick, although it's nearly time to upgrade anyway...

    There are some threads out there about installing an internal bluetooth module (for Acer notebooks) this is going back a couple of years so may take some searching...
