Thank God you didn't mention the stuff about horns on the helmets because it

isn't true. They wore feathers. Other than that, thanks for the input. It's

nice when somebody on the list actually takes the time to put something like

this together to share the knowledge.

Being Danish, I've got some affinity with Harald Bluetooth, a 10th-century

Viking king :)


Actually, Bluetooth operates as a radio signal rather than infra-red (which

needs to be in line-of-sight) meaning that devices don't have to face each

other. The allocated frequency range is somewhere above 2.4GHz (on the side,

there is an issue in France where this frequency band is used by the

military). Also, Bluetooth devices can be up to 10m apart, and up to 100m

with relay stations. See more info below, something I've put together from

various sources mostly from www.bluetooth.com
