Just got a USB-dongle from the street (about US$13) and started setting it up with, among other devices, a Nokia 6600. I have SyncML (with Evo), ObjectPush, Internet through GPRS & FS access (p3nfsd) running now. I was quite surprised how smooth things went with bluez + gnome (which starts showing first integration results by now). I'd say that about 99% of all USB Bluetooth adapters on the market contain a chip from CSR. This is especially true for all the no-name adapters out there. The CSR chips are supported well by bluez. So for a change the rule is to buy the cheapest adapter available if you want to be safe ;-) And yes, bluez is part of FC3.
