    It is the same part, both XP SP3 and Vista SP1 supports it without Dell drivers. I have no idea why Dell gives different bluetooth options for Vista and XP. My Vostro 1500 originally came with XP (and 355 module for XP), and after I replaced the OS with Vista SP1, bluetooth is still working fine.
