It appears that we'll need to have both bluetooth and 802.11

Bluetooth starts to reach usefulness: My article in today's Seattle Times discusses how Bluetooth works and in which devices you can find Bluetooth support, or how to add it to existing equipment. My prognostication, implied in the article, is that once you have enough equipment shipping with Bluetooth built in, an extra $50 or so to enable your computer or laptop won't seem like much because of the additional utility. Cell data is the big motivator here: if I can get a 2.5 or 3G phone with Bluetooth that I can control entirely from my computer as a network connection, then why bother with infrared, cables, or other proprietary solutions?
