Is there any way to use two of those bluetooth usb adaptors as a sort of walky talky or intercom? Or better yet, is there a way to make it a radio transmitter?

If you can find a program that will modulate the infrared emitter and recieve the transmission.

Um...
Bluetooth is a radio protocol, not infrared.

Bluetooth is already set up to be used as a
network interface. Just network both computers
together over the Bluetooth link, and then run
NetMeeting or some similar program, and you can
video conference.

I think the they are meant to be used on a computer but I bet you could get it to work but it would be difficult, really difficult.
