WiBro: The Fast Moving WiFi

Wacky — 08 November 2005

The company behind the iRiver music devices, Reigncom, is developing a WiBro supported gaming device. You are probably asking what the hell is WiBro, why do I care, and does it have anything to do with WiFi?

Well, to answer your questions that I so wittingly put in your head, WiBro is a cousin of the 802 standard, more closely related to WiMax. It enables, or supports 3MBPS wireless communication of devices at up to .6 miles away, traveling at speeds of up to 37 MPH.

WiMax is planned to emerge in Korea sometime next year and should be closely followed by the release of Reigncom’s gaming device.
