i have not looked at the pro's and cons of bluetooth, i was hoping someone with experience could shed light on the situation. i will be within 10' of the unit when using bluetooth. i want it wireless because the vessel needs to be streamline,and i dont want to deal with ANY holes. i dont have a preference on the wireless, i just need to program/reload sketches, and collect the data from the camera that i store on the sd card WIRELESSLY. i am not looking for an alternative to wireless. thank you for the ideas though.
