I wanted to try something cool with a bluetooth video camera that I have. I know that I can connect them via bluetooth and watch the vid on my ux50. Given I had the proper equipment to put the video camera underwater, would bluetooth still work, say maybe about 8 feet underwater? I'd like to try it out in my swimming pool. What do you guys think? I am also an avid fish collector and would love to get a vid of my fish inside the tank.

hm, not too sure whether the signal penetrates water, but it would be fun to try it out

The short answer is that BlueTooth would not work well at all underwater.
See http://www.qsl.net/vk5br/UwaterComms.htm for a good explanation.
