    Do you ever do blue tooth transfers often (computer to computer)? If so how is it working out with you.

    its soo simple , in my HP laptop i just right click on any file i wanna send and select send to bluetooth device then it search and find bluetooth devices in the area and i choose, but take care the other laptop must allow his bluetooth to receive data , its an option u must activate b4 u receive data for security issues i think,
    good luck

    I did it once or twice, but isn't it really slow? Using a USB stick might be faster.

    bluetooth 2.1 says 2.1Mbit/s... slow...

    if you need to do this regularly, usb stick or router is easier and way faster...
