I have both the D-Link (apples website) and I just got a 2 pack of ioGear
CLASS 1 BT adapters (Class 1 go 300 feet instead of 30) - even though my
phone is still a class 3 device (30 feet) - I get MUCH better range with the
new adapters... especially using Salling Clicker!
the ioGear is about 10$ more retail - but WORTH IT!

(jason at ophiochos.org.uk) graced my inbox with this brilliant thought:

AHHH but make sure the phone can do more than 1 connection: for instance -
the t68i is 1 channel only so I can only use the headset OR have the
connection to the Mac (Address Book, etc)... make sure you check this out...
