I'd be surprised if they were available in commercial packages yet. I'm not sure if they ever will be (though that's not my domain). BlueCore 3 isn't really targetted at the PC world. There are two versions: Multimedia, which has a digital signal processor, and is targeted at embedded applications, and ROM, which has (suprise) code in ROM and therefore can't be upgraded. There are, of course, versions available for developers, but whether people will bother putting these in cheap PC dongles I don't know. BlueCore 4 External, which supports Enhanced Data Rate, is the next chip specifically designed for the PC market. I would expect stuff to start appearing on the market with that in some time around the back end of this year (although as I'm not in marketing that's a guess). -- Peter Stephenson Software Engineer CSR Ltd., Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WH, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 692070 ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
