Anyone else have this problem? I have a Bluetooth speaker less than ten feet from where my laptop is usually setup. The Bluetooth works great, unless I'm using my machine. If I'm typing, or if my had is hovering over the track pad, Bluetooth is likely to interrupt. My Bluetooth speaker is located to the right side of the MBP. Any ideas?
 
My understanding is that Bluetooth is an "inherently weak" signal to begin with.

Do you have anything plugged into the USB ports? If so, there could be electromagnetic interference involved.

Could you re-locate the Bluetooth speaker "here and there" until you find a position that works a little better...? I realize that's not "the best solution", but sometimes... what works... works.
