Heh, I should charge Belkin a commission ... ;-)

or (for a better picture)

EBLUETOOTH.htm

The model number is: F8T016

And once I'd warmed it in a hot fire for a short time, I noticed some other=
 markings on it which (translated from the Elvish) read:

FCC ID:K7SF8T016
IC:3623A-F8T016

There's also a version of this adapter with 100m range, should you ever wis=
h to share your bluetooth link with all of your neighbours.

And yes, it really *is* this small! I was planning on installing it permane=
ntly in the back of one of my machines, or risk losing it completely, but t=
he machine then refused to boot. (It's an old machine with USB 1.1 ports at=
 the back; it might be confused by the adapter's "hub on a chip", or possib=
ly by the adapter's built-in keyboard and mouse devices.)

Now that we know how to get it working, I will be able to experiment with i=
t further.

Cheers,
Chris
