V470 -- 1 mouse, two laptops?

OpheliaHardin · ‎10-23-2008

I have two laptops and when one is on, the other is off.

Is there any way to pair one mouse to both laptops so I don't have to go through the Bluetooth Manager every time I switch laptops?

Defenetly NO

Why is that? I'm definitely interested!

I'm pretty sure it was a design feature of Bluetooth, to prevent others from snooping on the connection. Granted, snooping mouse movements would be pretty useless, but it is built-in to Bluetooth.

So I have gathered from further reading of the forums. Makes sense, but I wish I could pair them with the same passkey or something like that to effect my scenario.

Thanks for the explanation.
