Hi Igor,

I just realized that I replied to you personally with that last email rather
than the list ... oops ... sorry.

Thanks for your clarifying response.

I am glad that it is not a black and white issue but rather a potential
degradation of bandwidth or increase in latency. I would imagine that some
of the problem could be mitigated through judicious selection of BT or Wifi
channel to avoid interference. Since it would be rare that you would have
control of both sides of a wifi connection, do you know if BT supports
hopping to a different channel on the fly to try to increase frequency
separation?
