    Flex? You out there?



    Ok...time's up. The answer is C; Bluetooth causes horrendous interference in the 2.4 GHz band. So much so that typically Bluetooth devices are not allowed in areas running 2.4 GHz WLANs. The other answers are more or less bogus. Bluetooth has three power settings: 1 mW, 2 mW and 100 mW and its operational range is about 10 meters.

    Good go, gang. Let's try again tomorrow.

    You see Trip, i just couldn't do it.

    The cursor was over button A, my finger on the trigger :snipersm:

    But something nagging in the back of my mind was say, don't do it flex, you know in your heart it's really answer C.

    Indecision was my downfall.

    Anyway knew it was C, changed my mind and all, but guess wot, I FOR GOT TO VOTE :!:

    HONEST :noway
    :peace
