Hi John, welcome in the list!!!

sorry that I'am bit short, today I'm a  bit busy. The  Arduino sketches are 
currently in refactoring, HelloRadio is not ported to the new class
Radio API. Also I started reworking the buffer concept for RX/TX, hope to 
finish it next week, this weekend will go with some social hacking. 

So the bootloader I checked in yesterday (this a hacked arduino version,
the hack was done from Pierce Nichols, it works with 19200bps. With scons 
parduino this should be in the install package and the BL can be flashed
from within Arduino (I tried that yesterday).

For the modules, just ask DE for a better price, there should be a discount. Or 
if you don't need FCC legitimation, then self building 
a module is also an alternative. Joerg  and Daniel can give you advice on the 
RF part.

If this are going to be badges, then you should probably not use a chip 
antenna, because the water cylinder wearing the badge will shield 
the radio waves ;-)

So, for now thats my two cent, Cheers, Axel.
