    I'm debating whether to put bluetooth on my thinkpad configuration or not. I don't use bluetooth for anything. It's $29 to get it. Do you think having bluetooth would get me more than $29 when I sell it in 2 years?

    No one? Come on I want to buy my laptop soon and I need to know!

    Definitely get the bluetooth, especially since it only costs $29 to get it.

    A couple of useful stuff you can do with bluetooth:

    1) Bluetooth mouse
    2) Bluetooth data transfer between your laptop and PDA and cell phone
    3) If you have a Samsung cell phone, do some hacks, and you can wirelessly surf the net at night for free using your cell phone, comes in handy when you are stuck in a motel room in the middle of nowhere.

    I would get it. Even if you do not use it, it is an extra feature that will help when you sell it later.
