"You don't get a great deal in the way of expansion options, so while there are four USB 2.0 ports (three on the right side and one on the rear) you don't get Firewire or Bluetooth."

You might want to check that. Oh and if u want one. Check ebay.

My ACER has the bluetooth button, but that's just because they use the same "shell" for all their models.

If you really want Bluetooth it is best really to get a laptop with it built in. USB ones will stick out, they will often need weird drivers and software and the convenience of pressing a physical button is nice.

Search it in google.
My laptop has bluetooth and it works great.
Also, My laptop is older than yours so it probably would work =D

I think mine does aswel, there is a button on the front that lights up in orange, and next to it there is a bluetooth logo. Does anoyone know where i can get software for it?

I don't know what computer you have so try the ACER website see if they do drivers for it

It will have the button, but not the bluetooth devide inside i'm guessing unless you have a better range of ACER than mine =)

I'd go with the USB Bluetooth dongle. Then if you ever upgrade your laptop or whatever, you can just simply use it on the new one.
