Regarding the thread about Bluetooth being dead

SCKT is still a tiny company -- probably never justify a tenth of the wild valuation it acheieved in the good old days of month or so around 2000.

BLUETOOTH REMAINS OBSCURE
Several years ago many made grand predictions about Bluetooth, but
today the wireless technology remains relatively obscure to most users.
While sales of Wi-Fi technology have grown significantly--242 percent
last year, according to one group--consumers have not flocked to
Bluetooth the way many had forecast. Michael McCamon of the Bluetooth
Special Interest Group compared the two by calling Bluetooth a Swiss
Army knife, which does many different things, and Wi-Fi a steak knife,
which only does one thing but does it very well. McCamon touted the
versatility of Bluetooth, which is intended to connect a wide range of
devices, such as computers, cell phones, personal organizers, or even
appliances, allowing them to share data quickly and easily.
