Exactly. I want to do the same, maybe not sit in my car but
certainly
be able to walk up to the glider with my MacBook and download flights
or mess with settings in the Cambridge without messing with cables.

I've not tested this yet, I've been too busy playing at home with my
iPAQ 310 PNA, including driving SeeYou Mobile with the Silent Wings
simulator NEMA output, either via a K6 BT adapter connected to a
Keyspan USB-to-serial adapter or via the Mac's internal bluetooth
adapter. Once I fly with it more and install the K6 adapter in the
glider I plan on testing this.

Great - since we're neighbors maybe we can throw a Bluetooth party.

Here are some web links on adapters:

Note that these are Class 1 devices with 100 meter range rather than
the Class 2 devices with 10 meter range found in most PCs and phones
so maybe I can sit in my car. They appear to work on up to 12v so
perhaps you can just wire it into the panel power. Would be neat.
