Not wanting cat5 for the phone, in my earlier searches I saw a photo of a Bluetooth dongle that had a hole in it for a cat5 plug The first time I heard about Bluetooth was when I was in line at store and the person behind me was talking a lot and when I asked who they were talking to I learned they had a earpiece with a mike that used Bluetooth to talk over their cellphone. > Your easiest solution (as has been mentioned before) is to > simply get a wifi dongle for your pc, and enable mobile hotspot > on your phone. I'm a hardhead.
