ATTENTION!! The Roving Networks bluesmirf (gold) and Sparkfun’s BGB203 bluesmirf (silver) DO WORK with any OS that has a COM port and can use a terminal program.
As far as the hardware is concerned, all of the bluetooth modules we sell are compatible with each other, but do sometimes use different command sets. All one needs to get a link going from PC to bluesmirf is a terminal emulation program and that is it. We suggest something like TeraTerm.
All these devices do is replace the serial cable.
