Bluetooth is dead

Bluetooth is dead

It seems [b]Intel[/b] are giving up on [i]Bluetooth[/i]. After years of supporting the technology, it seems the chipmaker has had enough of waiting for it to be fully embraced. Instead [b]Intel[/b] plans to offer their own derivative called [i]Wireless USB[/i].

[blockquote]At the Intel Developer Forum on Wednesday Intel announced the company was giving up on the deadlocked Ultrawideband IEEE task group and going it alone with a derivative offering they are calling Wireless USB. This initiative, for them, does everything that Bluetooth does and, effectively means that for PCs Bluetooth is all but dead.[/blockquote]
