There's a list of compatible Bluetooth devices here: http://www.wiili.org/index.php/Compatible_Bluetooth_Devices

I use a D-Link (DBT-120), which works great.

The Bluetooth chip in the Wiimote is a Broadcom BCM2042 (http://www.broadcom.com/products/Bluetooth/Bluetooth-RF-Silicon-and-Software-Solutions/BCM2042). Maybe you can get some more details on the product page about range, etc.

Cheers, -Mike

really again thanks in advance for your release of other externals (openscenegraph and such).
