Here are some questions and answers from our next months speaker:

> 1.  There are two models of the UD100 dongle, ie UD100-G03 vs
> UD100-G01.  Do you have a preference ?

It does not matter.

> 2.  Should people buy the extra antenna, like the 5dB, when they buy the UD100 ?

No additional antenna is needed for the class.  But any 2.4GHz (wifi)
antenna will work.

> 3.  What software should people download and install before attending
> the workshop ?  Do you have a recommended guide for bluetooth under
> linux ?

I have a live linux DVD we can boot from or use in VirtualBox/VMware.
It is a customized version of Backtrack linux (which is based on Ubuntu 10.04)
