Yikes, thanks for the list Jeff, as usual your contribution to this NG is extreme and most helpful. Couple of questions....

- How can I tell if a keyboard/mouse uses the Cypress semi? I'm looking into a Logitech KB/ laser mouse combo.

- I'm buying 900mHz wireless headphones, they're OK right? Thanks LT

The driver will have "Cypress Wireless USB" listed in the device list. The chips will look something like this:

However, I wouldn't worry (much) about interference from WirelessUSB devices (i.e. mice and keyboards). The AFH algorith used in Bluetooth

Yep. No interference to 2.4GHz.
