02/19/2004: "INTC + RF = 0"

I wrote this on a whiteboard once back at Wayport. Tranlation: Intel has a long (for the semiconductor industry) history of failure when it comes to radio.

About the only thing they've ever done with any success is Centrino, and that is built from other people's technology.

Now this, Intel puts the axe in Bluetooth, pulls out of the IEEE's UWB efforts and decides to go it alone with something they like to call "Wireless USB".

Still holding.
