    I am planning on replacing my Z70Va soon with the F3Jm. I noticed the F3Jm does not offer BT. I have been using a BT mouse, keyboard and headphones with my Z70Va. Do any retailers offer BT as an option or can you add it later on? My other question concerns the screen, is it possible to replace the screen with my Z70Va screen? This is not a problem as I will be retiring the Z70Va anyway. I like the idea of a matte screen compared to a glossy one and I would like to know if this would work. Is the F3Jm video card compatable with the Z70Va screen?

    The screen is more about the wiring and size issues(fitting in bezel), then the video card. The F3 series does not support BT, If I recall correctly.

    Perhaps if you sell the Z70va, and use that money for the new model, it'd be a better idea, the F3 may be a step down in quality.

    Hi!

    I have a F3JM notebook but without the built-in bluetooth function :( . Does someone know what bluetooth card brand and model are used in F3JM's who have built-in blootooth? I bought a little USB bluetooth key but I don't like it and I want to install the original bluetooth card.

    Thanks!!!
