    From what I can remember HP used a mini PCI express bluetooth adaptor. If the dell 355 uses the same standard then it might be possible. I dont believe HP has a BIOS lock on bluetooth card like they have on the wifi's. Just as an FYI looking at the service manual for the dv6000, the bluetooth slot seems to be buried inside the case and would require disassembly to even access it.
