Power consumption

Is power use linear, or proprotional to the distance the devices are apart? Onco p53 01:09, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

-- I'd be surprised to hear that the electrical power drain changed at all with distance. however, the signal strength of course will will be be subject to distance^2 reduction.

I read that some modules detect the signal strength, then adjust the power consumption to only the amount needed. In effect, this makes the power indirectly related to the distance. I don't believe it is inherent to the technology though. I can't locate my source. goodeye 19:21, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

Bluetooth 2.0

I've removed some of the text in the Bluetooth 2.0 section as it was factually inaccurate: there are no single frequency channels with faster data rates: connections using EDR hop as Bluetooth always has. --Pw201 21:41, 26 May 2005 (UTC)
