I'm SURE this may have been answered elsewhere but I can't find it on the forum, so apologies in advance, but...

Can someone tell me definitively whether it's possible to use Bluetooth devices with an XP VM in Parallels? I believe mice and keyboards can work. But what about sync'ing a Palm Treo through Bluetooth? Thanks very much in advance!

Did you ever get a reply to this? Or get it to work?

I don't sync my PDA from the Windows side, so can't verify Bluetooth that way. However, for Bluetooth connections to my GPS receiver, it works well with the freeware "Serial Client" <http://eudyptes.com/SerialClient.php>. It reads the MacOSX virtual serial port that is set up when you configure the Mac connection to a Bluetooth device, and "publishes" it as a Com port that Parallels can see. Don't see why it wouldn't work as well for syncing.
