Parallels config help for bluetooth & wireless

Hi,

I have seen in another post http://macosx.com/forums/boot-camp-o...bluetooth.html
that it is possible to use bluetooth and the mac wireless network device from within the Parallels VM Windows XP env.

How exaclty do you set this up. I had a look at the Network Adapter options etc within the VM config area but it was not clear and did not mention bluetooth at all.

Please help. I really need to get this working so I can use my new shiny white macbook exclusively.

Thanks
eric

Update from Parallels

Just thought I would update this thread. I sent a support email to Parallels asking for help re wireless and bluetooth.

They have responded that bluetooth is not supported in this version of Parallels Desktop for Mac. There were some links to adding bluetooth adaptors into the USB ports, but I think these were for older macs that dont have inbuilt bluetooth.

Anyway, I am now using bootcamp for my boring Windows business. Thankfully the reboot into Windows and back to OSX is very quick.
