Hi Saeed
I've got Bluetooth sorted and paired it with my phone, so looks like it will be
easy enough with JAWS and not sighted assistance.
I know the Samsung NC10 has had a lot of following on this list, but I always
like to be different! Having read the spec I decided it wasn't for me and
wanted to go a bit smaller as I was dropping down from a 12 inch laptop, so
down to a 10 inch really wasn't that much. As it is I am very glad I decided to
go for an Asus. With 1GB of RAM and 12GB harddrive, you would be forgiven for
thinking it didn't pack much of a punch. But using it now for a few days with
both JAWS and Window Eyes, I have absolutely no complaints to make. It is
virtually silent even when the fan is running and the speed with only 1GB is
surprisingly fast, a lot faster than my 2GB laptop.
Can you tell I love my little Asus?

Hi Barbara, it is me with the Asus. For few weeks, I thought I was one of
the endangered species on the list as everyone seemed to opt for the NC10 so I
feel good to have another person with Asus EEE PC.
As far as the one I have, which is the EEE 1000H, there is no external
devices needed for the bluetooth as the bluetooth is already built-in.
You are right in terms of using the function key and f2 to toggle the
bluetooth and wireless on/off. However after switching the bluetooth on, you
will have to configure the bluetooth and pairing the netbook with any external
peripheral devices such as mobile phones etc.
If I can assist, please let me know.
Kind regards, Saeed

Subject: [access-uk] Bluetooth on my Asus
I have recently purchased an Asus Eee PC 901 Netbook. It is a fantastic
little device, but more on that later.
I have been trying to use the Bluetooth and while it says it has an
internal Bluetooth erial, when I try to open the Bluetooth software it is
telling me my Bluetooth device is not connected. Surely I don't need a dongle
when there is an internal Bluetooth erial? I know someone else on this list has
one of these netbooks, but can't remember who. I would be greatful for any help
offered.
