There is some "co-existence" stuff in GTA02 and future products that
reduces this effect... the two devices warn each other to defer what
they had planned because the other device is using the air.

Agree about the extra battery issue, but I have to agree with Thomas
wired headsets no longer seem to be a fashion accessory in wide use,
whereas BT cyborgs are all over the shop like a bad episode of Dr Who.
