===Bluetooth 1.2===
----
* Backward compatible with 1.1
I wish that the future WLAN specs and products would use 5Ghz [[ISM]] band, like 802.11a and some HiperLANs do, but we'll have to see what's going to happen [[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 16:50 Jun 5, 2003 (EEST)
* Baseband platform already available from [[Ericsson]] Techonology Licensing
* Adaptative Frequency Hopping ([[AFH]]) provides better immunity to interference from other devices (such as 802.11 devices)
* [[Scatternet]] ability (Running multiple [[Piconet]]s simultaneously, making it possible to interconnect piconets)
* Extended SCO (ESCO) (whatever that means)
* Improved [[QoS]]
* Faster connections then in 1.1


:Good news for [[Bluetooth]] enthusiasts: IEEE is in the process of developing a new WLAN standard :802.11n. According to Finnish sources the only specs for now are that it will work on '''5GHz band''' and reach 100Mbps. [[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 15:22, 20 Jan 2004 (EET)


===Bluetooth 2.0===
::Bad news for trolls, though. Who can keep up with all the crap broadcast at 100Mbps and correct it?
'''First news/rumors'''


Keep an eye out for [[802.16]] Metropolitan Area Networks. 2-10GHz and 10-66GHz bands, very high speeds. Intel and Nokia are involved. I'll write more on this if it seems to be gaining momentum [[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 13:45 Jul 20, 2003 (EEST)


* Backward compatible with 1.1 and 1.2
''- Great. Does that mean that we won't need Wi-Fi, but just Bluetooth capable devices to get on the internet? 
* This version is rumored to contain new speeds of 4,8 and 12 Mbps.
I.G.''
* A new way of communication: non-hopping narrowband connections, which sounds like a broadcast channel that can be read by all devices in the coverage area.
* 2.0 dispenses with the master/slave situation making every device able to keep a piconet running, while as in the 1.1 spec if the master leaves the piconet is dropped for all slaves
* The release of the 2.0 specification will propably be delayed to 2004, even though there are already prototypes running in Ericssons labs
