    Hi everyone,

    I just recently bought an NC2400 but it didn't come with bluetooth, i'm having a really hard time finding the module part#412766-001 in Canada though (HP US has it but they AFAIK they don't ship to Canada, HP CAN says the product is unavailable).

    Does anyone know if it's possible to install another HP bluetooth module such as part#397922-001, which is for the NC6400 and readily and cheaply available on ebay, and then maybe just download and install the drivers? Would that work?

    I know somebody will probably suggest just get a 10 dollar USB dongle. But for me that's a last resort because it sticks out and is something extra to carry (although i'd pick up a MoGo Dapter http://www.newtonperipherals.com/mogo_dapter.html if it were available).

    Let me know if anyone has had luck installing a different Bluetooth module into an HP. Thanks
