New WiFi Standards, Double the Data?
morkeleb writes "According to the New York Times (free reg. req.), just when you thought it was safe to stock your home or office the 802.11x way, another possibility springs up. From Stanford and Bell Labs comes an approach using MIMO, which 'relies on taking advantage of huge amounts of computing power to send numbers of signals from closely spaced antennas', thereby enhancing range and throughput. Looks like Intel and Nokia are interested in the technology, as well as a number of highroller venture capitalist groups."
I'm tired of making up Joe Sixpack at zip code 10000 registrations for the NYT. Isn't there some universally-known user name/pw to use to get into the NYT site and get past this annoyance?
And your first failure at your first attempt at first post. You're batting a thousand, my ugly little friend.
I am sick. I drink too much. No-one can help me. Sorry to ruin your day like this.
Any other subscribers notice how there was a SCO story up in the queue but it got the boot for this story. Finally, the edittors are learning we don't want to read that crap.
Yeah I know (-1 offtopic)
Isn't it only for short distances?
I already have the house set up with 2 airports and still get dead areas less than two rooma away from the access points.
If this is geared for shorter distances, things like ceramic tiles in the bathroom, your granite countertop, springs in your couch and the your ventilation hood on the stove will get in the way of the signal.
If this is geared for shorter distances, than 802.11, I can't see how it will be anything less than a failure.

this would work better if you had the correct syntax.

To see a world in a grain of sand, and then to step back and see the beach where the sand lies
fuddites.
that's right. those foulcurrs best get ready to see the light.
there is no where to hide, nor should there be.
don't come crying to us when there's only won channel/os left.
the posterbouys for grand larcenIE/deception would include any & all of the walking dead who peddle phonIE stock markup payper to millions of hardworking conservative folks, & then after stealing/spending/disappearing the real dough, pretend that nothing ever happened. sound familiar robbIE? these fauxking corepirate nazi larcens, want us to pretend along with them, whilst they continue to squander yOUR "investmeNTs", on their soul DOWt craving for excess/ego gratification. yuk
no matter their ceaseless efforts to block the truth from you, the tasks (planet/population rescue) will be completed.
the lights are coming up now.
you can pretend all you want. our advise is to be as far away from the walking dead contingent as possible, when the big flash occurs. you wouldn't want to get any of that evile on you.
as to the free unlimited energy plan, as the lights come up, more&more folks will stop being misled into sucking up more&more of the infant killing barrolls of crudeness, & learn that it's more than ok to use newclear power generated by natural (hydro, solar, etc...) methods. of course more information about not wasting anything/behaving less frivolously is bound to show up, here&there.
cyphering how many babies it costs for a barroll of crudeness, we've decided to cut back, a lot, on wasteful things like giving monIE to felons, to help them destroy the planet/population.
no matter. the #1 task is planet/population rescue. the lights are coming up. we're in crisis mode. you can help.
the unlimited power (such as has never been seen before) is freely available to all, with the possible exception of the aforementioned walking dead.
consult with/trust in yOUR creator. more breathing. vote with yOUR wallet. seek others of non-aggressive intentions/behaviours. that's the spirit, moving you.
pay no heed/monIE to the greed/fear based walking dead.
each harmed innocent carries with it a bad toll. it will be repaid by you/us. the Godless felons will not be available to make reparations.
pay attention. that's definitely affordable, plus you might develop skills which could prevent you from being misled any further by phonIE ?pr? ?firm? generated misinformation.
good work so far. there's still much to be done. see you there. tell 'em robbIE.
stratjakt is back to trolling. That's what he does best ...
I wonder if they'll figure out a way to make a (drumroll, please) P-R-O-F-I-T with any of the companies they're likely to bankroll.
Companies built around a single technology in search of a profitable business model. It's gonna be just like back in the old days of '99!
