    Hello,

    I'm checking out the options for customizing the VGN-SZ140.

    One of the choices is the Motion Eye Camera and Bluetooth Technology [add $30.00]


    I do NOT want the camera - not even if it was free. But I would like the BT technology built into the unit. Some of my questions are dependent on the answers to the other questions.

    1 Is the BT an external piece/pcmcia/usb card?
    2 Does it come with BT if I don't order the camera?
    3 Can I remove the camera but keep the BT?

    I'm not exactly sure what the 140 does for options... but i have the 120 and someone else at work has the 160, and both the laptops have the camera built into the lid and the Bluetooth is also internal.....

    and if that is the actual line you pasted off some site, then i think it is safe to assume that they are not seperatable as an option, otherwise they'd be listed seperately.... if you are so intent on not using the camera, a simple right click and disable in device manager takes care of that
