Here's another trick I forgot to mention, on some calipers the bleeder is located at the bottom, instead of the top, which is backwards from an air bubble's point of view. I've found that it works well to remove the caliper from the mount, and hold it upside down while bleeding it. An extra set of hands is a big help in this situation.

Mighty Vac and gravity works well together.

I have a speed bleeder - I'll use it if I'm simply taking old fluid out and putting new fluid in. If it's a system with air in it whatsoever... it's worth the extra few $$ to go Mighty Vac.
