I have heard there have been difficulties with the Toshiba stack. My own 
experience with a BT dongle and an E800 with the Toshiba BT stack is: BT 
shows no connection unless software is actually attached to the com port. 
Ensure your software is actually looking at Com 6 ( standard is Com 8 on 
your other device)
