Acer Travel Mate 800LCi questions

I just purchased a Travel Mate 800LCI and it has everything I wanted in a
notebook, but I have a couple issues.

1) When on certain web pages Flash or Active scripting enabled, I hear a
slight tone/beep from the speakers. I believe someone here described the
sound as sort of a Morse code.

Anyone know what maybe causing this and if it can be fixed with a bios
update? If you want to hear the sound go to a quiet room and go to this web
page. http://global.acer.com/

2) I am trying to locate a place to purchase the internal blue tooth module
that is suppose to be available as per the website
(http://global.acer.com/products/notebook/invilink.htm), but nobody seems to
know anything about it. I have called the American parts number and they say
its not available yet.

Can anyone verify they have the internal blue tooth module and where I can
get it. I would rather have everything internal and not have to buy a
separate card and waste slots.

Other than these two things I am very happy with the notebook.

thanks for any info

Leto
