I'm reading now that bluetooth uses the 2.4Ghz band which is just
about tapped out around here. My wireless keyboard and wireless
network use it, and since I'm in an apartment there's no telling how
many other people are doing the same, along with their microwaves and
phones. Has anyone used a bluetooth headset in an environment with
other devices utilizing the 2.4Ghz band?
