Our old XP sp1 PC would only intermittently recognise our (2) paired Nokia 6600's via bluetooth, and our new XP sp2 pc fails every time (it connects but a few secnds later claims that the remote device has terminated the connection - I think not!).

Having heard that other people have experienced dodgey bluetooth connectivity, I decided on a different approach:

My solution was a ridiculously cheap infrared USB dongle from ebay - no need to set up pairing etc and connection is now 100% reliable on either phone.
