While the enhanced BlueSMiRF lets you work without a serial cable, you will still have to physically press the "program" button on the RC, so you can't really program the robot from a distance. Even with the need to press the button, I think getting rid of the cable is likely to make things a lot more convenient.

If there were a wireless module which combined a full-featured high speed serial link and an additional pair of switches, though...that is something I might even pay for out of my own pocket.
