I want it to have bluetooth "permanently". I would prefer
not to have a USB or PCMCIA card because they all stick out of the

If I could find a PCMCIA bluetooth 2.0 card with A2DP that fit flush
in the laptop I would be all over it. I've looked everywhere,
though, and such an animal does not appear to exist.

Have you tried ebay?
There are several sellers selling new "IBM Bluetooth Daughter Card 91P7319 for T40 T41 T42 T43" or search other daughter cards. Needs a litle openig of the laptop and screen covers but just snapping on of the connectors.
