I personally have had good experience with the XBee modules from Digi.
I've only ever used them in API mode where you send a structured packet
to the modem and it delivers the payload to the recipient in another
structured packet, but there is also a "transparent mode" where a pair
of XBees acts as a dumb serial pipe. No special PCB layout or anything
needed, just a plain 8N1 NRZ serial interface at up to 250kbps and a
3.3V power supply.

Note that there are two versions of the XBee, the old "series 1" (under
Wireless/Point-to-Multipoint/XBee&XBee Pro 802.15.4 OEM RF on the Digi
website), and the new ones (2.4, DigiMesh, and other names). I've only
used the series 1.
