Wireless USB by michael_m91 on 08-30-2005 at 09:38 PM
Is there a way that i can take a USB device and make it wireless so that i can have it farther away from my computer?

I don't think so, at least directly. You can, however, connect it to other compuler and link the computer via wireless...

Oh well...At least less cabling which is very nice..BUT:
It will probably consume more energy, cause more interferencies ( i dont know if this will really happen because they didnt tell more details ).
Its not something we really need, is it?

Sounds promising, I mean is gonna be better that bluetooth even if its just faster, and the distance thing will be resolved I would imagin in later releases. I got a bluetooth dongle i paid top whack for here and its snail pace slow for transfering date.
