Any one know how to get a Bluetooth CF card to work on OSX, I got a NOKIA connective pack that come with the CF card only with windows driver.

Thanks Gumse, will write to Ross and see if he can help. I just need to have the Nokia bluetooth CF card to work on my PB, so that I can keep it the PCMCIA slot and don't have to put a USB buletooth adapte sticking out all the time.

if you want a real nice solution: skip the CF-card and buy a Bluetooth USB Adapter. Take the adapter apart. You then have a little device that fits nicely between the memory strips and the edge of the 'key-board hole'. You'll have to solder a wire from this device to the USB-port.
Voila.

Wow Thanks Arri, Why didn't I thank of that, but with this connection will I be able to use the USB port that I solder the BT on it?

well, o this port could support more than device, but i think you'll have to also build in a hub (or something).
Actually i don't know, maybe you can just connect devices parallel... Anyone?

How about the signal reception? If we put it into the Ti PB, will the metal shield it off?

So what PCMCIA card do you have again? I've noticed a few out there. Do they work? Were you able to get yours to work?
