    Please help a newbie...
    I ordered a Vostro 1700, which is perfect so far. But I was stupid and didn't order it with bluetooth.
    How do I now add it?? Can I just buy a USB fob like this:
    http://accessories.dell.com/sna/pro....aspx?c=ca&l=en&s=bsd&cs=cabsdt1&sku=A0913492

    And then bluetooth devices will be able to connect to my Vostro??
    The main reason I want bluetooth is so I can use a wireless bluetooth headset to listen to music..
    Help!
    Thanks!!! :)
