    Hey guys, typing on my brand spankin' new HEL80 from Xotic. Have a question regarding using my cell phone on here. I have got my connection through bluetooth on my computer but is there anyway I can dial and all that from my computer? At the moment I have to dial the number on my cell phone but that it uses my computer as a headset so can talk on here. Don't know how to use my computer as the actual phone. Thanks for the help in advance.

    That seems like the sort of thing that would be cellphone/software specific.

    what kind of phone are you having. if you're having some sort of smartphone, than probably there is a software that would enable to do this. if it's a regular phone i pretty much doubt it.

    maybe you should try Motorola Phone Tools
    If my memory serves me correctly you can make a call from there. You're phone will have to be connected of course.
    well, it won't hurt checking it out.
