The dongle thing is cheap, its like 10 dollars on some websites, about 40 sheikals for our currency. Damn it, i read the instruction manual and i followed the steps and accourding to some of the abilitys i have on my laptop i CAN connect. My brother was able to send files from his laptop to mine some years ago without a router or lan setup. But he has to reset his laptop due to a driver error that happened while he was playing around with it. I am pretty sure my laptop has bluetooth capablities. I might have to update my driver for the bluetooth device or just buy thing dongle thing. But alot of people i heard are having trouble with some of the stuff for my type of phone.
