Maybe this paragraph from the article will help; "Istvan said Motorola would propose its architecture for this system, which it calls Piano, as an industry standard for delivering high-speed wireless data among personal computers, servers, personal digital assistants, notebook PCs and other digital devices. Using Piano as a standard is being proposed to the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, a consortium of wireless communications and computing companies founded in May by IBM Corp., Intel Corp., Nokia Corp., Telefon AB L.M. Ericsson and Toshiba Corp." Do you see Metrocom's name mentioned. I'm not sure MCOM has resources to compete for the wireless communication market. Am I missing something here??
