The standards discussion--are they good, bad or indifferent--is one in which I hold no opinion since the results can vary so much. Show me the result, and I'll tell you my opinion.

Here are the last four groups whose proposals are alive with respect to 802.11n standards. Q is in the chase as it has its own proposal going forward. However, given history, hurt feelings, Q's sharp elbows, and the fact that Q is again going it alone, I will be very surprised if its proposal gets adopted. We'll know about this time next year--[I wish they'd hurry up, I've been stalling my wife on WiFi telling her that the next best thing will happen soon, very soon, and that we should wait until IT is available. She's catching on, giving me the fish eye.]

Here are the WWiSE's members, which include Airgo but not Cisco:

Here are the members of the TGnSnc members, which do include Cisco but obviously not Airgo:

tgnsync.org

MITMOT is [probably] Mitsubishi and Motorola.

Riddle me this:

If CSCO has a death grip on the Airgo patents, why are the companies supporting different proposals?

What the heck is going on?
