  1. Comment - Wi-Fi Direct aims to be the 'Bluetooth Killer'

    It's bad enough I have to compete with a dozen neighbors for wireless frequencies, now I have to compete with their toasters too? And if it's crowded now, it'll only get worse as N catches on with its expanded range. The technology's great, but the 2.4GHz band just doesn't have room for all this.

  5. Comment - 5 Gbps USB 3.0 comes closer to reality with new controller

    But what if you could plug your video card into your monitor, kinda like a notebook video card? Look at all the exposed surface area that'd be available for cooling, as well as pulling power from the monitor's power source. The idea is intriguing, if USB3 can handle it.
