Bluetooth

[bandit9]

I have just graduated college and am looking to buy a new laptop computer. I have been hearing a lot about Bluetooth wireless technology and was hoping someone could help me understand what the benefits of purchasing a computer with it installed on it would be?

Bluetooth wireless technology is a worldwide specification for a small-form factor, low-cost radio solution that provides links between mobile computers, mobile phones, other portable handheld devices, and connectivity to the Internet. The specification is developed, published and promoted by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG).

We've tried using bluetooth enabled keyboards/mice here at my office and always had trouble with them. We've spent many hours trying to config them, but couldn't get it to work. :/
