Try, try again. It seems that even if Microsoft can shake the government's antitrust pursuit, they're still getting hit from other angles. The latest is that RealNetworks has filed an antitrust suit against Microsoft, claiming that they're using their operating system monopoly to limit choice on digital media. They're going to ask for somewhere around $1 billion dollars. Microsoft has done an amazing job shaking off every such lawsuit in the past. You wonder if, one day, one of these will stick.

Every once in a while, the dance between trends and technology achieves an almost perfect state of synchronicity that changes the way we experience the world. This may be one of those times. Among the trends: five years ago, less than 13 percent of Internet users had a digital-music file on their computer. Now, 70 percent of computer users listen to music on their PCs. And that is just the tip of the iceberg. Last year, more than 100 million digital photos were taken. More and more people are using PCs to view videos. By the end of this year, 9.5 million TV tuner cards will have shipped.

Another NetGear 108Mbps AP

Another NetGear 108Mbps AP 11/18/2003 09:05 PM
NetGear introduced an AP designed for small or medium businesses that can deliver 108Mbps throughput: NetGear uses the Atheros chip that Glenn and I reported on for PC World at the end of last week. Broadcom claims the Atheros chip causes extreme performance degradation in nearby Wi-Fi networks. I tried hard to speak to a NetGear spokesperson for the PC World article but they weren't able to dig anyone up for me. It's somewhat amusing that the NetGear folks sent us the press release about a new 108Mbps product with no reference to our repeated conversations last week regarding the PC World article....

802.11b for $17.50 04/26/2004 02:02 AM
NetGear WGR614 802.11g Wireless Router is $37 after discount and $20 mail-in rebate: We don't like to highlight deals unless they're quite remarkable. If you've been looking to upgrade to 802.11g and swear that you'll send the rebate in, you can buy NetGear's home-oriented gateway for $37 net. If you use Amazon.com's slow shipping in the U.S., there's no fee for dispatching it to you. NetGear is pushing its faster line of "108" Mbps gear, and this rebate probably reflects a desire to move out plain (but compatible) 802.11g devices. You can also get a bargain on a D-Link 802.11b access point, as Amazon is selling the DI-514 Wireless 802.11b Cable/DSL Router for about $17.50 after a $30 mail-in rebate....

NetGear Adds MIMO

NetGear Adds MIMO 01/05/2005 11:17 AM
MIMO is cropping up all over: NetGear is the latest to announce a MIMO (multiple-in, multiple-out) product. They're partnering with Video54. Linksys has apparently chosen Airgo. Samsung and Athena announced single-chip silicon yesterday. The near-term problem with MIMO isn't with the technology itself, but rather the non-standard higher speed modes. No one is claiming interference, but these modes won't be certified by The Wi-Fi Alliance or any other group. That means interoperability, even among devices made by manufacturers using the same silicon isn't assured. The worst part, in my estimation, is that this generation of MIMO technology isn't what the final 802.11n specification will look like. So purchasing MIMO today except for specific applications in which you need substantially higher throughput and range from a single device over interoperable, certified 802.11g means you're buying a dead-on device. 802.11n might achieve speeds of several hundred megabytes per second, and there's is practically a total certainty that the final 802.11n won't be just a firmware upgrade, but rather a difference in both hardware and silicon compared to today's MIMO devices....

Netgear Balks on WPA Certification for
Some Gear 03/08/2004 11:15 PM
Just after the Wi-Fi Alliance touted how many companies have received certification for the WPA security specification, some vendors are suggesting they may not seek certification for some products: Going forward, the Wi-Fi Alliance requires WPA for any product to be certified. Netgear said that while it plans to certify ts products that target business users, the company is not sure if it will submit its consumer devices for certification because consumers are happy with the more basic security mechanisms. This story points to Belkin and SMC as other vendors that haven't certified their gear. But Belkin says that its products support WPA but just haven't been certified yet. Netgear is the only company this story cites as balking on certifying some of its gear to meet WPA requirements. The Wi-Fi Alliance bragged in February that 175 products had been certified for WPA since September 2003. While it would be a concern if a bunch of vendors were holding out on WPA, Netgear alone doesn't prove that such a trend is happening. With all the buzz around the lack of security in Wi-Fi, I would think that most vendors will want to offer as much security as possible to reassure nervous potential users....
