802.11n Delayed to 2008
An anonymous reader writes "Looks like we have to wait some more for 802.11n and promised 100 Mbps speeds. IEEE has delayed ratification of the standard until 2008, yet again, due to continuing problems with interoperability and too many comments from chipset manufacturers and other interested parties. Analysts are telling firms not to deploy n until the new standard is ratified."
Well, from what I read, it's definitely worth the wait. I think somebody posted it to wiki, and it was immediately removed, but one of my friends (an editor) told me that it was removed by court order, something to do with trade secrets. According to the poster, the new spec is blazingly fast, allows true anonymous surfing, and has better real strong encryption built right in (as in one time pads constructed from random background radio noise), and some other stuff that I don't even begin to understand. This is the sort of thing that could kill the NIC. It's really fascinating, and I managed to find a copy of the original posting in google's cache here.
