Summary:

 Some customers have experienced poor eBeam software performance when connecting eBeam Edge systems via internal Bluetooth on Intel based Macs. In the past, end users with Macs have not needed to use the BT dongle that comes in the box. However, performance issues can be eliminated if the external Bluetooth dongle supplied with the Edge unit is plugged in and configured to replace internal Bluetooth.
