bluetooth is good, but has short range...
Xbee is relatively inexpensive and has fairly long range
Easy Radio (though I never heard it called that) is very inexpensive, but has no error correction capabilities.  (see places like Rentron... http://www.rentron.com/PicBasic/RemoteControl.htm)

bluetooth is good, but has short range...

there are three classes for bluetooth, short, medium, and long
class 1 can do like 100 meters
