Re: how do u connect to a 6230 with no cable?
Hi There..
You must have a bluetooth device (suchs as D-Link DBT-120 (USB device)),
installed on your laptop.
Then the software who is delivred with the phone.
Best regards

If you get yourself a Bluetooth dongle for your laptop you can connect
to it that way.

I assume you have a Wi-Fi card in your laptop, but you can't use that
to communicate with the 6230.

About £20 for a USB dongle.

They do normally, but if you have Windows XP SR2 you may not need the
drivers supplied with the dongle.

They 'give you the option to choose your preferred method of connection'.
Read: 'go out and buy a Nokia cable for $$$' The CD is a carrot to say 'hey,
go connect to your pc'...
Alternatively, some PCs and (most?) new laptops already have infrared
and/or bluetooth ready installed. My Acer laptop has iR and is acceptable
for connecting to my 6230.....

fiver.
