    Which model of Mac do you have ? AFAIK all Intel Macs since 2005 have had Bluetooth as standard. Here's a list.

    My PowerMac G5 had it as an option which I didn't take but I've had a couple of different dongles on it. My current one is a Belkin USB 2.0 device. Here's a list of some others. I've even bought cheapy low profile units without any markings that work perfectly.

    A neat low profile dongle is more desirable then I'm guessing ? I have one of these plugged into a G4 here and it works perfectly ! Even does A2DP !

    I'm pretty sure any standard Bluetooth dongle should work with Leopard (10.5.x) Haven't found one yet that hasn't worked.
