    I just got a Logitech v270 bluetooth mouse which works wonderfully with my dv6500t however i noticed that with both wifi and bluetooth on, my battery drains alot quicker than with just wifi on. It also seems to take alot longer to charge. Guess thats just the price bluetooth costs?

    Bluetooth does drain quit a bit of juice. You're best off using it only when you need to.
