Ubertooth Kickstarter project

I found this interesting:

Commercial Bluetooth monitoring equipment starts at about $10,000. Project Ubertooth seeks to produce an affordable platform that can be used for Bluetooth monitoring and for the development of new Bluetooth and wireless technologies.
Low-cost off-the-shelf Wi-Fi adapters have supported monitor mode for years, and the technique has found diverse uses in security research, troubleshooting, product development, intrusion detection, and more. Unfortunately, there has never been an equivalent tool for Bluetooth before Ubertooth One, a fully open source platform (both hardware and software).

You can find out more about Project Ubertooth on my blog and at the project web site.
