I have been using Bluesoleil dongle for sometime. But through these forums I found that Billionton dongles are better but costly.

After searching for many days I got hold of a Billionton Bluetooth USB Dongle for Rs. 300 i.e same price as Bluesoleil.

But to my surprise at the time of installing the drivers from the accompanying CD i found that the CD contained Bluesoleil drivers and not Billionton.

Now the dongle recognized my Nokia but doesnt recognize my friends Sony Ericson. The services supported are also same in number and there is no performance betterment.

Many questions have now started cropping in my mind like for which I require the answers of the learned members of the forum.

1. Is it a true Billionton or a Bluesoleil in the disguise of Billionton?
2. Is the problem due to wrong drivers? If yes where to get the drivers and which stack to use?
3. Why Billionton is better?

Hoping for a responce at the earliest.

I think Bluesoleil is the company which is making the drivers for the bluetooth devices... i have a Enter Blooth Dongle with the same driver...
