    Did your Asus G73JH come with a bluetooth module?

    I've read in reviews that it should come with a bluetooth module, curiously enough mine doesn't have one :p
    Does yours?

    Models from BestBuy don't have BT module. You can buy one from ebay for 13$. I've just ordered one, and now having trouble finding some tutorial on how to install it...

    The BT module is located at the bottom right of the chassis (bottom right side of the palm area) and its cable is connected on the bottom left of the upper side of the motherboard (under the bottom right side of the keyboard), so you dont have to flip the motherboard over to install it which is a big advantage. Its a little chip glued right onto the inner side of the chassis. I know i really have it since i took my laptop apart and checked everything is in order :p.
    You can buy one real cheap and install it yourself following the G73JH Dissasembly guide on youtube.
