    He certanly seems taken with the technology. It would certanly be cool if this technology did free us of all our technological woes, but given that I'm not really a radio engineer, I'll remain skeptical untill it happens :)

    Anyway, it would certanly be cool if it were true, but I do have trouble beliving that even if it were the FCC would let all that bandwidth go for free, I mean, I bet even if UWB does end up in wide use, it'll still be controlled by the same local monopolies that controll bandwidth now...
