[Coco] DroidWire, cocofest Edition

[Aaron Wolfe]

I should have mentioned that.. While i cant recommend any specific model as
a good choice, I would not recommend the hc-05 as it doesn't seem to work.
It may be something we can fix but something different would probably be a
better choice.   The whole thing is experimental at this point.  I don't
have hardware to test anything beyond "it works for me".

If you read reviews of a device working well with aurdino or android
devices (regardless of application) then it will very likely work well with
DroidWire.
