    Hello,
    I am having trouble getting A2DP running on my m11x any suggestions. I downloaded the latest software for the bluetooth off of dell but that gave me a pop error after each boot and so I uninstalled it. But when I did download and install it I was able to see my bluetooth docking station as an available output device, the problem was that I could not connect with it. But now with the latest update uninstalled from dell I can't see the bluetooth speakers as an output device HELP!

    i have the dell wireless 375 bluetooth adapter

    thank you

    i got an R3 with bluetooth and A2dp does not work with it as isn't supported as far as i figured out. had to get a generic usb BT dongle. wasted 2hours trying to get dell BT working with my earphones, bigger waste of time than teaching physics to a hillbilly. It just doesn't get it.

    This worked!
    Thank you blingers.

    I purchased a Bluetooth A2DP Adapter Audio receiver for iPod Dock for my iKick501 and now can stream music to it. Just what I wanted. I wonder if it only does it in stereo or if it does 5.1. Either way I am happy. How did you find this out?

    Maybe you can try the generic Bluetooth drivers off of the Broadcom website.
