I have a treo 650 and a new laptop with Vista. I have a belkin bluetooth adaptor that works great with my computer. I have no problems hotsyncing using bluetooth. But I try to connect with pdanet via bluetooth I get error messages code=666,773,780. Pdanet is on the same port (com5) as my hotsync but it never connects. My bluetooth icon in my bottom right hand corner of the screen says I successfully connected. Any help or suggestion please.

I browsed their FAQ Help section for your error codes and here is what I found:
I am getting error 773 when connecting with Bluetooth. I have make sure Bluetooth is working for HotSync.
We have seen this error reported from a few users. Try the following and see if it helps: first disable Bluetooth in PdaNet settings and enable it in HotSync, then perform HotSync over the same Bluetooth serial port and make sure it works. Now without disabling it from HotSync Manager, go straight to PdaNet settings and enable Bluetooth on the same port. You will see a warning message, just let it continue. Try to connect PdaNet over Bluetooth again and see if the problem goes away. If not, stay with USB.

Error 666 on the Treo side: "The Treo data network is not responding temporarily".
If you have tried to soft reset the phone and it does not help, then it usually means that you do not have a good data service coverage at your area.

Couldn't find anything on an error 780
