Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) has come one step closer to defending its patent relating to several Wi-Fi standards, with defendant Buffalo Technology losing a US appeal on the matter.
Buffalo Technology has increased the capacity of its small-format hard disk drives with the announcement of a 500GB drive, compact enough to fit in your pocket.
Australian government research body CSIRO is standing firm on its claims to Wi-Fi patents and refusing to offer any guarantee it won't sue manufacturers of next generation wireless products.
3G and 802.11n are on the roadmap for the next generation of Centrino, due next year.
Microsoft filed seven lawsuits against Microsoft Action Pack Subscriptions partners, marking the first time the company has taken legal action against its MAPS partners for alleged breach of contract.
As CSIRO stands firm on its refusal to freely license key patents relating to WLANs, I'm reminded of the joke: what do you get when you grab a man by the testicles? The answer: his full attention.
As the 802.11n standard gets closer to final ratification, enterprises are beginning to wonder how this may impact their Wireless LAN strategy in the coming year and beyond. For organisations that may choose to deploy 802.11n, it will have serious upgrade implications for both the infrastructure and the client side.
New technology promises to increase the speed of wireless networks by a factor of 20, but the emerging standard is being delayed by vendors squabbling.
Netgear's FWG114P wireless access point/router/firewall/print server is a great all-in-one device for those planning to set up a home office.

Network attached storage appliances come in all shapes and sizes: in this review roundup we look at what five of the leading vendors have to offer the small to medium-sized business.
Although it covers all the NAS bases and is very affordable, it's hard to see the TeraStation Pro II Rackmount having much of an impact on the business market.
Apple's new Time Capsule incorporates both a wireless router and a hard drive into the same product. In its niche, the Time Capsule is the most advanced product on the market -- its price is also fair compared with a separate router and network-attached hard drive.
An appreciably large NAS server targeted for small- or home office use, above-average performance and considerable storage space make the Iomega Storcenter Pro 150d a great solution for data archiving and backing up PCs in your office.
The Acer Aspire e650 is a powerful, feature-rich media centre, but we're still not convinced that Viiv is mature enough for mass adoption.
