    I am wondering whether bluetooth feature is useful. Are you guys using this feature? Does it affect your selection of laptops ?

    I love it...I can sync my phone contacts wirelessly, use my phone as a modem and connect to a Bluetooth mouse with no additional hardware.

    internal bluetooth card is great. many uses. i use a bluetake bluetooth mouse, which does not require an usb adaptor plugged in to one of my usb slots . . . as my previous logitech wireless mouse did.
