For years, computer makers and makers of products that interface
with computers such as flash drives and hard drives have worked hard
and long to increase the speeds at which their products perform their
functions. Consumers have seen data transfer rate speeds greatly
increase, and those speed i

This has been talked about for years. Right here, for a recent example:

I had just never heard anyone saying they wanted to give up their esata HD
for a wireless one. Just last weekend I helped a friend run 3 cat 5 cables
throughout his house...not sure wired is really going anywhere. I have a

N is pretty good. U upgraded my wireless router/access points to N
this past year. (not that expensive) and put a N card in my one laptop.
I have a mix at home of G and N laptops.
So far it seems to work very well. However the direct connect
(cable) still seems a it faster for big stuff.

Most potable devices are still using G for their wireless

in coming out, many did not want to install a preN device and then
not have it be compatible.
Almost all smartphones with built in Wifi also still use G.

Actually, quite possibly. The government snoops have been
absolutely thrilled about our penchant for cell phones and for exactly
