Yes, from a product development standpoint, Wireless USB is definitely dead.  I 
did find some references to products, but they are all discontinued.  I'm 
inclined to just pitch this -- but perhaps someone actually managed to get this 
working and using it somewhere?

(The work on 60GHz seems to have supplanted Wireless USB, for the record.  
Therefore, I don't see Wireless USB making a comeback.)
