Bluetooth for sure.
It's a lot faster and you don't need to fuss with making sure the infrareds connect.

Bluetooth in all aspects

EASE of use, cost, compatability, future proof, etc.... Dont even bother buying a IRDA...

Actually, Bluetooth dongles are more expensive than IR adaptors.

Bluetooth is not faster than IRDA. It's actually the other way around.

Really? I've always thought that BT was faster than IR. Oh well.
