Logitech Bluetooth receiver

Is there anyway I can use the Logitech receiver that came with my
Logitech MX5000 k/bd & mouse to link up with my PDA? Logitech site
gives no help, nor do emails to their support desk.

My PC's OS is Windows XP 64 bit and PDA an iPAQ 3715 with Windows
Mobile 2003.

Well it depends on the driver your Bluetooth receiver is using. If you right
click on the Bluetooth icon on the task bar do you see anywhere a serial
port option? Do you have a My Bluetooth Places on your desktop?

Hi

The support for Bluetooth receiver and the Network stack is done by Widcomm
drivers that are supported by Logitech. I do not know the current status of
your hardware but the 64bits Widcomm drivers that come with the Logitech
devices usually are licensed to support only the Logitech devices.

This page has instruction for BT and PDA but I doubt that it will help you.
