HDR has greater coverage than 802.11b and Bluetooth. I have 802.11b (wireless ethernet) at home after reading someone rave about it on RB. Can't wait for bluetooth built into the laptop. Operating at 2.4ghz, it has a useable distance of 40 feet with several sheets of dry-wall in the way. The "Access Point" or base station is in the garage. Happily moved the DSL modem, firewall appliance, file server, and hub to the garage as well. Even with 20% signal strength, I still manage to move 2mb/sec between local machines. Closer to the Access Point, I can move 10mb/sec. With Access Points costing as little as $350 and the modem cards (using PCMCIA) costing $100, I can't imagine a better solution for local lans. Obviously, it won't have the ~30 mile range of HDR.
