The Death of Bluetooth?

Posted by timothy on from the hifi-jumprope dept.

Aaron Cherrington writes "Bob Frankston has written an article in which he declares that Bluetooth has failed. The article states that despite the fact it is wireless, it still has all of the limitations of wires. Is it too early to declare the death of Bluetooth, or can we can expect more out of it?"

    King Harald 'Bluetooth' (Danish Harald Blåtand) was the King of Denmark and died in 986AD.

    Bluetooth is a very convenient technology - WiFi is kinda overkill.

    Yeah and with 802.11 you find chalk outside your door and someone has taken over control of your electric nosehair groomer.
