I find this PIN business very hard to follow.
Is there a simple account somewhere?
(Please don't refer me to the Bluetooth Spec
which I find more or less unintelligble.)

I have two laptops, martha and william (my grandparents).
I first linked to my Nokia 6310 with martha.
For some reason the phone thinks william is also martha.
Is this something to do with the fact that I always use the same PIN?
