    I have a dv6000z with the Broadcom wireless card. It does not have bluetooth.

    HP website says the replacement cards are the 407159-001 and the 407160-001, on their site they say both have bluetooth. When searching for this item on ebay and other computer sites there is no mention of bluetooth.

    I messaged one of these sites and they said they have no information saying that it contains the bluetooth capability.

    I read on another message board that the 407159-001 actually does not have bluetooth but HP did not update the mistake on their website.

    Im asking is there any way to get bluetooth in my machine. Thanks alot.

    -Keith

    make sure you have downloaded all files related to windows media player, so that you can watch the bluetooth video.
