    I know this will sound like a silly question to a lot of you. But, don't laugh too hard, I'm just learning how to let my inner-geek run free. ;) I have a V2000, up untl now, it's done everything I've asked of it, and it's been a great machine. I just got a new cell, and one of it's capabilities is that it's able to recieve files from a computer via bluetooth. Problem is, I've never used it on my laptop before. I have no idea if my laptop has bluetooth, and I have no idea how to find out if it does. I don't see anything that says "Bluetooth" in the device manager. So, how do I find ut if I have it, and if I have it, how do I turn it on so it can talk to my new phone so they can become buddies? TIA.

    Unless you configured Bluetooth for a build-to-order machine, you don't have it. You'll need to buy a USB Bluetooth adapter.

    If you have bluetooth you will see "Bluetooth Devices" in the Device Manager
