Phone with the best bluetooth range?

Hey,

I am looking for a phone with the greatest bluetooth range. What are
my best options with Sprint?

It needs to be BT2.0, but, is there a difference in range between
various devices? Or are all phones pretty much 'Class 2' with only the
standard 10m range?

Also, there are dongles for laptops that extend bluetooth range to
'Class 1'(about 100m) but are there 'dongles'
for phones that can boost the standard range?

Can anyone help me? I can seem to find a lot of reference material and
I dread having to go in and listen to the teenager at the store in the
mall.

Thx in advance,
Noah

My LG VX8600 (BT1.1) and Bluespoon Spider (BT1) will range at least 200
feet outdoors line of sight. That's as far as I have checked. Indoors
if the phone is placed sorta high (4-5 feet) I can listen to Pink Floyd
anywhere in the house (except behind the fridge).

The Spider is great. Hands free, headset, auto answer when in A2DP,
AVRCP. I was lucky to get it on sale at RatShack for $49, it's now back
to $99.

Motorola Razr. Stay away from Sanyo 8400 due to very short BT range.
