with the size of the bluetooth adaptors, it must be possible to find a spot in the TiBook case to put the thing without having to stick an adaptor into your USB port...right?

    via usb is what I had in mind. Some desktop configs had an internal firewire port. Can anyone think of a way to tapck into the usb port from the inside of the case?

    Matteo Festorazzi in Italy embedded a USB Bluetooth adapter inside his TiBook. See <a href="http://www.macitynet.it/immagini/servizispeciali/bluetoothinsidee/"; target="_blank">this page</a> for pictures and instructions.

    a pc card would be the obviouse solution. The only question now is; Will someone make a bluetooth/ airport-extreem pc-card that doesn't stick to far out anytime soon?
