    I have a P7120.

    To enable and disable both Wifi and BT there is a hardware switch. Most of the time i only need BT (for mouse).

    Is there a fujitsu app (or 3rd party app) that can toggle wifi and bt independently. Of course the hardware switch will have to be "on" always.

    At the moment even without being connected to wifi i can notice the wifi card getting hot (sits under left hand palm rest) and im sure its killing battery life as well.

    to close of this thread, i was looking for a 3rd party app to independently control my wifi and BT but win7 had it all built in!

    So i leave the hardware wifi key turned on, then disable the wifi in the mobility centre. thats it! BT stays on, and no wifi.

    btw i did work that out a number of months ago just did'nt post back here.
