Portable bluetooth application? by jon1988 on 01-07-2008 at 10:22 PM

i recently bought a bluetooth set for transfering files from pc to mobile that works by a device that looks like a USB data stick. My question is, is there any applications that can be used with this that are portable? i want to use one at college for transferring to phone but i dont know if the program it came with would work because its not portable? any help would be great.
thanks

Hmm, it was suggested here on portableapps.com but no one replied. That is also the only result on Google for "portable bluetooth program" (and none for "portable bluetooth application"). So I guess your out of luck with that one I'm afraid. :sad:

Windows XP SP2 and up has built-in support for most bluetooth stacks.
However, it is limited and kinda buggy with older devices.

You need not only the utility program, but also the device drivers. Drivers are not portable.
