What Features to Look for in a Cell Phone
Micro Bluetooth USB Dongle
The mini dongle is a tiny device that plugs into any standard USB port. Unlike most USB drives and Bluetooth add-ons, which stick out from a laptop as much as a human finger would, the Dapter protrudes less than the length of a fingernail.
The ease with which the mini-gizmo adds Bluetooth support to laptop computers makes it a welcome entry into the market. The device's maker -- Newton Peripherals of Natick, Mass. -- quotes figures from IMS Research and the Bluetooth Special Interest Group suggesting that as many as 250 million laptops that lack Bluetooth capabilities are in use today.
The Dapter, however, may be even more compelling when used with tablets -- portable computers that are designed to be held in one hand while operated with the other.
A 3-inch Bluetooth adapter sticking out the side of a sleek tablet would seem ludicrous and might even be dangerous. (I can hear my mother saying, "You could poke someone's eye out with that thing!") The tiny Dapter, by comparison, would hardly be noticed when plugged into the USB port of even the most svelte tablets.

VoIP Bluetooth Internet Phone
The Kensington Vo200 Bluetooth Internet Phone is a neat little device that fits and charges in the PCMIA slot of your laptop. It can be used to make calls over VoIP services like Skype, MSN and Google Talk. The phone has three hours of talk time and 30 hours of standby time, and also blinks when you have 10 minutes of talk time left. The fold-out design is particularly cool. Unfortunately, the product page says it only works with Windows XP.
