I am looking to get a PCI/mini PCI-E bluetooth card (not a bluetooth/wi-fi combo). Any help on finding one (preferably not shipping from the US) would be appreciated. I have all my USB ports taken up or I would have considered getting one of those bluetooth mini dongles.

I already have a wireless N card and have no plans on upgrading my home network to wireless AC in the near future, so the combo would make the point of me having bought this wireless card pointless.

get usb hub + usb dongle might be cheaper and more common.

like... it's a bluetooth

it's not even using whole bandwith of USB 1.1 unless you are trying to transfer a file.

almost every wifi+bluetooth combo are just an adapter to convert MiniPCI to PCI-e

 

I never seen single bluetooth PCI devices only.
