I Want My Bluetooth

Gizmodo:

Bluetooth’s just barely gotten a foothold in the world of technology, and already Intel, Sony, Philips, Texas Instruments, Samsung and others are working on a new wireless standard to replace it. There’s no catchy name for it yet (just the designation 802.15.3a) but it’ll use ultra wideband and be 100 times faster than Bluetooth.

I object on the grounds that I haven’t been able to purchase ANYTHING that is bluetooth enabled yet.  No phones, PCs, cameras, nothing.  I know they are out there.  I could pick up a T68i and a bluetooth USB adapter.  I’m sure there are a handful of other bluetooh-enabled devices out there.  I’m a fairly gatget-aware person, perhaps my budget is the problem.

Bluetooth hasn’t frickin’ penetrated the marketplace yet.  Let’s replace it.

Not.
