Had more luck with a Belkin bluetooth one than an IR £4 from Honk Kong via ebay one. Got that working, but a lot of pratting around to find the drivers..

Don't forget that BlueTooth has two ranges (10M and 100M, I seem to recall) and that some can talk to only 1 or two devices at once whilst others can talk to many more.

However, for simply talking to your phone then any old cheap USB-dongle style BlueTooth adaptor will suit your needs fine.
