Simply saying "don't use bluetooth" is really pretty lame.
That's not what I meant to say. What I meant to say is "try turning
off Bluetooth [support in Remote Buddy]". You can do this in
Preferences > Hardware > Bluetooth Receiver > .. - or temporarily just
via Remote Buddy's pull down menu.
I understand R.B. uses all the correct code, etc., I'm no
programmer, but I think something else is going on with R.B. and
bluetooth and wireless networking.
It sure is easy to point fingers at Remote Buddy, but it doesn't
change the matter of fact that this is a problem in Apple's drivers,
not Remote Buddy.
Apple's Bluetooth Mouse and Keyboard drivers run as kernel extensions
and thus *have* to use a *private*, kernel-level Apple API. Bluetooth
userspace APIs are *NOT* available to kernel extensions. Everybody
else, including Remote Buddy, has to use the only publicly documented,
userspace Bluetooth APIs of OS X. If there's a problem exclusive to
the userspace APIs, chances are zero that you'll notice them with
Apple's mouse and keyboard as they don't use them at all, but 100%
that you'll notice them when using software that uses the only API for
Bluetooth Apple provides to developers.
