Mr. Trent Carter RULES, INTERSIL 802.11
I've been talking to any hotshot on earth about 802.11 - PhD’s, Professors, Smelly CEO's and Cool Sales guys - but all of them have been full of BLUFF & BULLSHIT. An then yesterday I had a GOOOD experience - I have been mailing with Trent - and HE CALLED ME. It seems like big COMPNIES - after recession - have made a Cooperate Politic - about acting like assholes (CISCO as number one - BUSH WOULD SAY - MAJOR LEAUGE...) - BUT MR. INTERSIL is the exception that proves the rule. He answered all my questions - and added a lot of knowledge - NICE. Well DEAR VALUED READER - now you've been using 40 sec's reading this and I'll give you some 802.11
INFO PORN. 802.11b (11Mb in the 2,4Ghz band) is huge - brilliant and genius - but this autumn Intel released a 802.11a (52Mb in the 5Ghz band NOT 802.11b compatible) series of products - and was supposed to be revolutionary. But as Trent told me - and I partly already discovered - the 802.11g (52Mb in the 2,4Ghz band) wil be the killer standard of several reasons. One it's backward compatible. TWO is allowed worldwide. It's a part of the revolution - LEAN BACK - and look forward to throw away all your cables - and remember that the major Telco's have paid ZILLIONS (and are nearly broke) because of 3G (2-3MB in the 30Ghz band) - WISE GUYS ;)
PS. IEEE approved the standars from INTERSIL ;)
