For people “stuck” with the North American version of the TR1 or TR2 that doesn’t have Bluetooth built-in. You can get Sony’s PCGA-BA1/A Bluetooth adapter so you can enjoy Bluetooth connectivity. Here’s a review of what it looks like and how it works.

Enjoy.

Good review. Of the adaptors I’ve seen and dealt with, the Sony is definitely the best of the lot, even if it is hard to come by and costs twice as much as most of its competitors. I especially like that it comes with the MS BT stack from XP SP2.

i plug it in when i need it otherwise i leave it in its protective casing. plugging and unplugging it works like a charm. it’s a good example of plug in play. if i unplug it and plug it back in, it only takes a moment for the mouse to magically start working…
