Bluetooth uses the the same frequency band as the newer cordless phones, so it is an RF signal and therefore capable of passing through walls just as cordless phones do. It has a shorter range and ies less subject to interference and is more secure when this is necessary. As long as you use it within the 30 foot or so range it will work anywhere in the house with a clear signal, at least this has been my experience. I use it, ay various times, with the Bookport, a laptop and desktop, and the NLS tape machine, This allows me to move about the house even when using the computer as long as I am reading longer documents and newsletters.

Perhaps I'm missing something here. But I thought blue Tooth works only with line of sight. Therefore wouldn't RF type headphones workmore comveniently? I've been thinking about something like this myself although I have speakers allover the house. Sometimes headphones are great and it would be nice to be wireless. Lois Goodine.
