Conclusion:
If you have a choice to choose between Bluetooth or WiFi, select the technology that you think you will use the most or if you will use your device more in a home or work/network environment.
Bluetooth for "personal devices" and WiFi for networks or work environment.
WiFi™ products are expected to coexist with Bluetooth designs. Usually both technologies come together in the device package.
You may also want to ask the sales rep (before you buy) some of these questions and see what they say since they are usually trained in the technology and features of certain products, and/or contact the company you are buying the product from and ask them questions as well.
Hope this helps.

I was talking about PDAs, (I should have mentioned that before.)
I am thinking about upgrading my Visor Edge to a wireless device such as a Palm Tungsten T (Bluetooth) or possibly a PocketPC w/ WiFi capabilities or a Bluetooth and WiFi-enabled PocketPC.
Mainly I will be using it for my home network. It is currently a wired network, but by summer I home to be wireless. I
could
go PocketPC (WiFi) and be set. But, outside of the home, especailly in Portsmouth, VA (*sigh*) I might not be able use the wireless capablities.
But, if I get the Palm Pilot, I would need to get a Bluetooth adaptor to use it w/ my PC. But, I would still be able to use it outdoors w/ my Bluetooth-enabled phone.
I guess, I was trying to get the most for my dollar. I was leaning towards Bluetooth because I prefer the Palm OS, and they have yet to unveil any WiFi devices or WiFi SDIO for the Tungsten. I guess I might wait a little longer and see.
Thanks for answering.
