Many laptops now have Bluetooth.
Most desktops do not.

Bluetooth dongles at NewEgg.
http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=295&name=Network-Bluetooth
Prices from about $10 and up.

How about connecting wireless network connection card of laptop to desktop?

I have a laptop whose parts are fine but motherboard need to replace, i thought of buying new instead of replacing, so i decided to utilize the parts on my desktop.
Please also tell me how can i connect my laptop HD, DVD drive to desktop.
