Can I purchase the internally Bluetooth module separately...?

For the 12" iBook G4...

Thanks!

You could buy it as a service part form an Apple Service provider, but it'll probably cost you at least double the amount you would pay if you bought the iBook from Apple with it, or an external adapter.

Short answer, no. It's not a customer-serviceable part. Like bobw says, you could probably get an authorized reseller or authorized service place to do it for you, but it would cost a lot more than it would have cost you had you opted to get it when you purchased the iBook.

Tiny, external USB bloetooth adapters run about $50.

Oh shoot...

Hm... Is there any websites that I can check that may have the part?

You can try any of these companies, and also do a search for the part.

The D-Link DBT-120 adapter is $39.95 at the Apple store.

Have a look on eBay. You can get USB Bluetooth dongles for under $20.
