Eric L: WLAN

Yeah, I picked up on that this morning and it amazes how much coverage it is getting, even though I threw it out here for discussion here a couple of weeks back. Hope nobody picked up the story angle from me!! ;-)

What really amazes is the lack of understanding of the technologies available today, ones that are coming and the relationship between all of them.

I can say that I have been working with the HiperLAN2 Global Forum (about the only one I can say I am working with in public) and the story has been the same since inception: the basic concept that we will be Bluetooth-HiperLAN2-UMTS connected. H2 and UMTS interoperability is being worked on now (i.e., the best way to achieve it - there a couple of suggestions that need to be voted on), however standalone H2 products are due en masse early next year.

In the US there are several WISPs (wireless ISPs), but many "industry commentators" in Europe didn't realise we had them here too! Usually I point them to Telia (you can see the 802.11b access points at Arlanda and if you are real lucky Bluetooth connection on the Arlanda Express).

It's going to get interesting later this year and am just so thankful to be involved with it: probably more so than when in the 3G wars couple of years back!

Thanks for the updates regarding the 3G vs WLAN (including Mardy). Just hope the others monitoring this thread find it as interesting as I do.

All the best,
M

Eric L, so basically this article says if somebody puts a base station every 100 yards, Nokia is dead. Nomura needs new analysts. 802.11 is for wireless lans, I don't think its going to connect home users to the office while they carry their PDAs with them to home, the neighbors, the kids sporting events, etc. I doubt Jorma is losing too much sleep.

How is this different from the 6185i and 5185i?

We still can't get decent quality with voice over IP over wireline, how will 802.11 take over the world without some major breakthrough in voice over packet over wireless?
