Proxim announces 802.11a plans: Proxim announced support for the new high-speed 802.11a specification in their Harmony line of products. Proxim's approach with Harmony is to have a system in which many access points can be easily managed across a network through a central configuration system. This allows two cost savings: less time in configuring individual systems, and the ability to integrate less expensive access points (as well as those made by a variety of companies). The full suite of software and hardware hasn't shipped yet, but it may offer a good solution for companies that have deployed hetergeneous systems.
Jim Seymour writes three columns about Bluetooth, 3G, and 802.11b, and their interactions: it's a financial forum, but Seymour does a good job untangling the mess. The first column address Bluetooth; the second column explains the real problems behind 3G; and the third column tackles 802.11b, and winds up with some stock recommendations.
