Let's start a list of bluetooth adapters that are and are not compatible with
the NXT.

I purchased a Kensington model 33085 for $17 total incl shipping from ebay.
It can discover the NXT using Mac OS X bluetooth configuration but can't
find it using the NXTG software - so this one doesn't work on Mac.

What are other folks experiences?


Here's a bit of a jumpstart for the list.  I've collected this list over the
last couple months from the MDP.  They are all reported to work.

There is some info for Macs, but not a lot.
