My LG VX8600 (BT1.1) and Bluespoon Spider (BT1) will range at least 200
feet outdoors line of sight. That's as far as I have checked. Indoors
if the phone is placed sorta high (4-5 feet) I can listen to Pink Floyd
anywhere in the house (except behind the fridge).
The Spider is great. Hands free, headset, auto answer when in A2DP,
AVRCP. I was lucky to get it on sale at RatShack for $49, it's now back
to $99.
