I have a laptop computer that has a LAN access driver and claims to be Bluetooth enabled. I just got a Samsung SPH-a640 cell phone that is also Bluetooth enabled. Should the laptop not recognize the phone? I set the phone to be "always visible" and no matter what I do, the computer does not find the phone. Why? It should be able to do this wirelessly, right?

It definitely should be able to do this wirelessly. Now just because you set the phone's bluetooth to always visible, does not mean that it's always on. On most of the phone that i've had, that was a separate option from actually turning it on. How about trying it backwards and seeing if your phone can search for devices using it's bluetooth, specifically your laptop.

you did go into your bluetooth places and select add a new device right?
double check your bluetooth settings on your laptop, make sure it is on and workign by going to control panel blue tooth.

you may have to switch the blue-tooth on by using a switch or look on the F buttons at the top you may find signs in blue? then look for the blue-tooth sign press fn button and the blue-tooth one this may switch it on best of luck to you

That's so easy to answer. Why can't you ask something more difficult - like "what is the meaning of life"??
