    I plan on getting an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard but I'm worried about bluetooth interference. I have a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse at the moment and I'm quite happy with that. (Apart from the annoying right-click issues)

    Sometimes I transfer files from my phone to my Macbook via Bluetooth and when I do that, my Mighty Mouse lags quite a bit which forces me to use the touch-pad. This isn't a big concern for me though, as the mouse isn't that important since I have the touch-pad.

    If I buy the keyboard though, I will be sitting further away from my Macbook, maybe even connecting it up to an External Display. But I'm worried that when I transfer files from my phone that it will lag the keyboard as well, and since I won't be near the actual laptop, this will stop my usage of my laptop until I have finished with the transfer.

    Does anyone also use their Bluetooth a lot and have issues with interference? Thank in advance.
