Bluetooth. Awesome.

I can’t believe I’ve been miss­ing out on this for so long. It’s use­ful for so much more than hands­free head­sets and brain-killing wire­less headphones!

My phone has a pre­sen­ter mode when paired with a PC (and, yes, it can be used as a mouse as well… but I’d never do that :P) and works at a range of at least five meters (which was kind of as far as I could walk whilst still see­ing a screen in this place). You’d pay $90 for that kinda gad­get on its own!

The only prob­lem I’ve got with it is the lack of a pre­sen­ter timer built in — if it had that, it’d be per­fect. Guess that’s what you pay the $90 for these days :P

If I ever said any­thing bad about Blue­tooth just being a gim­mick, con­sider it suf­fi­ciently retracted.
