It’s not the only group toying around in the 60GHz frequency range, but a team of researchers from Georgia Tech’s Georgia Electronic Design Center seem to be a bit further along than most, and they say that their new 60GHz RF chip could pave the way into a whole host of new, speedier wireless devices. Apparently, the chip is the first 60GHz embedded chip designed for multi-gigabit wireless use, and the researchers have already pushed it to some pretty impressive lengths, reaching speeds of 15Gbps at a distance of 1 meter, 10Gbps at 2 meters, and 5Gbps at Read more… »
Nova Mobile seems to have been churning out a series of incremental upgrades to its original SideArm UMPC for a good long while now, but the company looks to be making a fresh start at CES, where it is set to debut the all new Side Arm 2.

You might have seen a few WiFi signal boosters around which were hacked together from baked bean cans or other similar items. If hackery is not your expertise then this WiFi signal booster comes ready made for you to increase your wifi signal by 600%. The dish adapter is Hi-Gain and can extend signals a huge amount compared to some boosters. What this does is two things. You can either connect from a super long distance away to your wifi network, or at the same time, take advantage of a super strong signal which in turn, keeps data transfer speeds as quick as they Read more… »
