So I got my new toy in the mail yesterday and OMG, brilliant. I haven't tested the range yet but no real reason to. Installation was simple enough, pop the CD in, install the driver, connect the receiver to the home stereo, plug in the USB Bluetooth thing and once the blue light is on you're connected. There's a remote that comes with it that reminds me of the little iMac remotes, except it's black, and controls volume, mute and can skip to the next song or pause it. It worked great with iTunes and since the remote points to the receiver you don't need to have the computer around at all, it can be hiding away somewhere, which is great for parties where you'd rather not have your laptop out in the open.
The only two complaints I have is that when the receiver is set to variable sound you can't control the volume with the external volume control on the computer, only with the receiver controls or the remote. The other stupid problem is more of a opinion, and thats that the remote is tiny, and you really have to PRESS the buttons since they're soft buttons and not hard.
But, those things are easily overcome and there's many hours of wireless music to be enjoyed soon.
