HI,

Yes, you could send them across like that using bluetooth, this is
what I do myself between my Nokia phone and my main PC, and also
between my samsung netbook and the mobile in order to transfer files
between the phone and netbook/PC.

However, what I have done which works very well for moving files
between the netbook and the PC, is set up network sharing, which is
possible as I have a wireless network at home. This is especially
handy for when I want to access media files from the main PC from the
netbook whilst it is upstairs in my bedroom. I can't quite remember
the details of how to do this sharing the harddrives across the
network, but another handy side-effect of this is that I have also
shared the CD/DVD drive in the PC with the netbook; so I can install
any software from CD/DVD to the netbook, using the drive in the PC,
even though the netbook itself doesn't have a CD/DVD drive.

I think its easiest to set up the network sharing like this if you
have both machines on the same opperating system, (both here on XP,
one pro and one Home edition), but I'm sure there must be a way to do
it also if they're on differnt versions of Windows.

Mark.
