I tried the method above this morning without success. Even with the Microsoft drivers in place, the bluetooth sync still fails, if not moreso than on the OEM Sony Widcommm drivers as now instead of timing out, I am receiving an error message.

Looks like this is simply a windows 7 compatibility issue. My research has indicated this is a problem on various platforms from Dell to Sony to HP, etc. I am a VERY competent computer user, and it appears that in this case either RIM or Microsoft are going to have to address the issue. Given the number of BBerry users on the PC platform, and the recent successful launch of win 7, this is going to come to a head sooner rather than later.
