Re: Robot to robot communication

use the SparkFun "BlueSmIRF" which Kevin Watson advocated before. It is really nice (and fairly cheap) and abides by all FCC laws. If you want to branch out a bit, check out come of the links from the Parallax RF page, to find IC's which you can use at the heart of a radio, be warned, however, that they are not FCC certified; I believe you can still use them for "experimental" purposes, but I would check the rules on that.
