Toshiba Bluetooth & MS Optical Desktop
To Whom it May Concern,
I have just purchased (for my college student, daughter) a XPS 140 w/BT. Had I known it was going to be using the Toshiba stack I would have thought long and hard about the BT purchase. The Story starts with my puchase almost 2 yrs ago of a M200 with BT from Toshiba. After spending a great deal of time on the phone with Toshiba trying to get their BT stack working well with the MS Optical Desktop they suggested that we change the stack to the MS BT stack. At that time they did not support changing the stack once MS SP 2 had been installed. So I purchased non-BT keyboard, mouse and docking station - expensive solution. Now I am seening the same issue with the Toshiba stack and the MS Elite Optical Desktop for BT (connections lost and must be manually reestablished - hourly or daily). I have a case with Dell openned asking how to change the stack to the MS BT stack. Also, found a web site (Toshiba - I think) in Germany that has a compatiblity matrix with differnt BT hardware (MS Optical Desktop is not supported). My only issue with the matrix is I am not sure how current it was.
Suggestions (i.e. link to replacing on a Dell XPS 140 the BT stack with the MS BT stack).
Thanks
