Pure Networks and a router's need for speed

Brett Marl at Pure Networks posted an interesting blog entry on the next generation of wireless routers now in development. The current standard of 802.11g carries speeds of up to 54 mbps, but that's not enough for moving huge files around your home, such as high definition video. The next iteration is 802.11n, which promises speeds of up to 600 mbps -- and, according to Brett, the IEEE governing standards committee expects to complete the guidelines by 2008.
