relative speeds are generally Cable < IR < BT

Thanks guys !
Does anyone knows whats the range of the BT of the K700i ?
is it worth buying a BT USB dongle that its range is 100m ?(or the 10m will be enough)
What about the brand, does it matter ?

Iv got a TDK one and its got a range of 100metres, but why would you need 300metres? Really are you gonna go to your mates house while sending something?

BT range of the K700i is 10m.

I think buying a 100m bluetooth dongle is a complete waste of money. I think the whole concept of 100m bluetooth range is pointless. Buying for the future? Other than for bluejacking, why would you want to send something to another thing that you're probably not likely to even be able to see?

Someone change my mind and give me a good reason? Don't say 'sending messages to your mates'. SMS prices are so cheap - stop being so tight.
