Thanks for the paper, Max, good read.  Can you share more details  
about maybe how to identify the appropriate cheap BT dongles, or  
which brands you had success with?  $30 may not be much, but if I've  
got to buy 4 to get the right one, it gets a bit more expensive.  A  
heck of a lot less expensive than the high-end ones, but still.  ;-)
