Title: Samsung D500, bluetooth and Phones4u
Post by: sonicyouth on Tuesday, January 25, 2005, 00:10:47
I went into Oxford to look at phones today, ended up coming home with a Samsung D500 for £15 from Phones4u. The fella who served me was excellent, the original price he offered me was £50 and without any haggling whatsoever he droppd it to £25 then again to £15. Lovely.

Anyway, been playing with the phone this evening and it's lovely. I bought a Bluetooth adapter with it and went to install it, apparently my phone isn't supported? I don't know much about bluetooth unfortunately, but the thingymajig is a Kondor MA700. I'd have thought compatability wasn't a problem but I can't install the drivers or software without my phone in the menu, or on the website, so I'm a bit stuck.

Got to go back into Oxford on Wednesday anyway, so I'll sort it then but thought I might be able to do something with it in the meantime.

actually I cant read (drunk). If you plug it into the computer then leave windows to install some software it should do it. then search for it with the samsung and link it together.  then you can send stuff between the two,.

hmmmm, windows doesn't offer me any drivers for bluetooth or anything it would work with. I've tried without and left the phone searching but nothing happened, I'll try again tomorrow!
