Intel Banks on Rapid Growth of WiMax
Intel's Developer Forum has kicked off this week in San Francisco and WiMax and dual core processors are the two big themes to be covered this year.
Vnunet.com had the following report:"Intel has been laying out its roadmap for the widespread introduction of wireless broadband using the 802.16 standard, known as WiMax. At the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco the company showed off its first chipset with integrated WiMax, codenamed Rosedale. Samples are already with customers, and it will be offered as an option on the Centrino platform by 2006. Potentially, one WiMax base station could provide connections faster than DSL over a 30-mile radius, according to Intel."
