More on my own question.
It turns out that bluetooth runs on the same frequencies as woreless 
b/g/n.  Bluetooth also uses frequency switching to the extent that it 
didn't help to relocate my wireless N connection to either end of the 
supported spectrum.  Wireless ethernet and bluetooth are simply not 
compatable in the same area.  I will have to keep my USB mouse handy for 
those times that I am making heave use of the wireless.
Thank goodness I didn't go out and buy that bluetooth headset...
