Soon, we are going to have wireless monitor screens where we can place it anywhere in the room, only with the limitation of that nasty powercord. Dang!

Why don't they introduce wireless powercords?

And I suppose HDs plugged into the mains in a central location to share some files or save files to?

Mice and keyboards and networking have been 'done' and I doubt USB wireless will make them cheaper (though can make them faster, I suppose - if longer distances don't eat into the bandwidth too much).]]>Sep 27th 2006 2:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/
No "killer apps" are you mad man obviously this is aimed at the portable markets such as dmp's, cameras and phones so that transferring your precious precious media without the backbreaking effort of sticking in a usb cable.

Or even better the hot swapage of pics and tunes on the go the possibilities are endless well no that's a lie but there definitely there anyway.

Actually think bluetooth only hella fast. ]]>Sep 27th 2006 2:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.ultrawidebandplanet.com/technology/article.php/3529451.

Thanks for the link!

Would be nice, I guess. As long as costs were ok and batteries didn't die too soon. One of the advantages of wired USB is giving up to 500mA of current to connected devices. Still, I don't regard wireless USB as killer so far (maybe because it was late to the party?), especially if the price goes up for the feature. In other words, it's not something on my "gotta have it" list. Most of the time I'm happy to be connecting a simple cable to a device, particularly if it powers it.]]>Sep 27th 2006 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/Sep 27th 2006 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/-where power is transmitted wirelessly to consumer products?"

I believe that's the idea behind a battery.]]>Sep 27th 2006 6:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/Sep 29th 2006 9:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/Oct 21st 2006 2:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/27/usb-if-launches-wireless-usb-certification-program/
