Connect Bluetooth phone to computer

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

What is the cheapest way to connect my Nokia 6103 cell phone to my PCs so I can back up my phone numbers? I have a Toshiba laptop ( Win XP) and a desktop (Win 98), on a D-Link wireless network, but no bluetooth. Nokia sells a connector cord for $50. Does not sound right to me. Can I get something for the Toshiba to enable it to connect to my phone's bluetooth?

Nokia is going to overcharge you no matter what you do. If you use froogle, you'll be able to find blue USB adapters that will allow you to connect your phone via your PC, however, im not sure how much they cost.

All you should need is one of these: [url]http://froogle.google.com/froogle?q=bluetooth%20dongle&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&sa=N&tab=wf[/url]

A bluetooth dongle acts like a wireless NIC, but it connects to your phone, not you network.
