    Hello, I just purchased a 5672. It does not have bluetooth installed in it and I was wondering if anyone knows where i can buy the necessary parts to install it myself. I believe it goes next to the hard drive but I am not sure what parts I will need to get or where. I would prefer a supplier in North America if possible.
    Acer Tech was no help on purchasing parts from them directly.

    Thanks

    Got a 5102 and I`m looking for it too! If its internal parts are similar to mine, you`ll ned to buy the Bluetooth module and a small cable/adaptor. I read they are a little more expensive than a USB dongle.

    I read (here or at notebookforums.com, don`t remember) someone was skilled enough to weld a regular USB dongle on the small-micro-tiny conector on the mainboard (this guy was reaaaaally skilled).
