Sadly, I cannot tell you whether or not it would have solved an issue with my Pearl, because I got the new BB last week, after I already had the new Dell provided drivers installed.
I'm using the Microsoft BT stack that comes with Vista. Before, I was using the Toshiba stack on XP. It detected the drivers no problem, but I couldn't sync over BT with Desktop Manager...

This is definitely a driver issue, not a BT issue. As I said, for the first time ever, Desktop Manager actually picked up the phone this time. It did not when I was running XP and the Toshiba BT stack.
