Which bluetooth?

[mlandergan]

So I am planning on going wireless with my robots and I was wondering which one I should buy. I was looking at sparkfun and I found many blutooth. What qualities should I look for are some better than others? Also I intend to use the bluetooth for only about 100-150 ft and I am mostly going to use it for the arduino. This is what I found so far:

Thanks in advance

I'd try going into the SparkFun forum and search for threads on each of these Bluetooth units.
That should give you a good idea to the Pros and Cons of each.

For bluetooth, I would go with class 1 devices.

You might also consider using Xbees (the 1mW ones will be fine), especially if you need to do two-way communication.  If you're just sending signals from a laptop with bluetooth, you would just need one bluetooth serial adapter, but to do two way, you would need two.  The xbee solution is about $90 for two-way communication, compared to $120-140 for two class 1 bluetooth adapters...

If you give us more info about what you're going to do with the wireless connection, we can better point you in the right direction

If you want high range, you don't want a device with a trace antenna (like the ones in your links).

This is what I use:
