Rob-
Bluetooth can talk to many devices (although only one at any given instant). If
you were going to control your system from your PC, there's no reason to send
the data through the NXT to the PC -- might as well send it directly to the PC.
Bluetooth is good for about 1 Mbs, which would be fine for something low res
like Vision Command.
