ALPS Internal Bluetooth module upgrade

[BonScott]

any help how i can get hold of a ALPS UGPZ6 module so i get the 2.0 +EDR would be nice to have a class 1 also but dont think its avaliable.
what other laptops are using the ALPS UGPZ6 module ...

the idea is to use WIDCOMM 5 stack , needs some tuning though
manage to make it work with the original UGPZ5 device (BT 1.2).
the laptop came with MS stack kinda useless like that.

still really mad about the whole thing .... bu the way wouldnt mind to find a new DVD +-RW (slot in if possible) to upgrade this pease of junk... ofcourse this laptop use a non size slim drive , well its slimmer that the standatd slim and cant find a region code firmware to realease it from the fixed one ...
