I don't mind a dongle, but would think that having an internal card 
would be less likely to get broken...since a dongle would always be 
protruding from the case.  Thoughts, opinions?  What does everyone 
else use?



I too would like to find such - a nice PCMCIA/PCCARD to put into my 
laptop and forget about, as opposed to a USB dongle hanging out.  
Non-USB BT seems rare but I'm still looking and would appreciate notice 
if anyone gets there first.




There are very short USB dongles that stick out 10mm or so.

I have a Belkin F8T002 ver 2 USB module that works well. I believe  
they mostly use a standard chip. Just like USB chips are OHCI etc...
