Best way to connect my phone

I just got a new Nokia phone that has bluetooth, IR, and USB connectivity. I can't get the IR to connect to my laptop for some reason, so the other options I could find are:

Bluetooth USB connector

Nokia USB connection ($50)

miniSD card (it has a slot) reader/writer to transfer pictures/mp3's.

What do you think is the cheapest option?

Posted by: SHAWN

Not being cheapest I guess, but the USB option would be the easiest.

Yeah...it's easiest n fastest way to connect.If u planed to surf net via phone,it gives u more speed in comparision of BT n IR ;) Which Nokia model u have by d way?

Yes that's true......
USB connectivity should give you the best results....
But if your laptop has BT then i suggest you use the BT connection although it may not give you the same speed as "Jax" put it. I mean it better to use something you have than to go buy something that costs $50 straight away....

Well, after checking around at some stores, I've found a cable for $10, but I've also found out that these cables use older equipment and even the good cables aren't always the best. So, I've ordered a bluetooth adapter for my laptop and I'm going to try that.
