    Hi, I have an early non-bluetooth enabled A8Js and would now like to add it. I'm curious whether the BT-183 module listed for $15 on Asus' Estore is the same thing as the one for $69 on btotech.com. Does the estore one not come with a cable or some other vital part? It just seems like a big price gap.

    Also, I'm familiar with G2P's posts on here and his awesome video guide on installing this thing, while the estore makes Internet Explorer pop up a security alert for an untrusted certificate so I'd tend to lean towards btotech as long as there's a good reason for the price difference.

    Anyway, enough blabbing. I await enlightenment. :)

    Uhh, anyone? I'll probably just buy one from btotech anyway but I'm still curious...
