Airport Extreme X2 and X4?

[Rocketman]

you're right longofest but atheros and broadcom adhere to the same WiMax specs that Intel has.

Oh ya..

One More Thing..hehehehe

Apple's Data Center and new iTunes servers went live yesterday.

This post seems to be a "scoop".

Oh, Wireless distribution system (thanks wikipedia ). I thought you meant a standard wireless router. I guess that makes more sense. Is this something that Apple stated during the demo?

No, but it would stand to reason since the Airport Express and Extreme already support WDS for range extension.

PS- Intel announced the new Quad Core chips today http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20070108-8572.html One day before Jobs keynote. Chance? I think not.

First: They were propably released at CES, so there's no relation to MacWorld as swuch, other than the fact that CES and MacWorld take place at the same time.

Second: That quad-core CPU is a Conroe. Apple does not use Conroe. Apple uses Xeons is MacPro, and quad-Xeons were announced last year.

802.11n standardized yet?

is it official? if not, when will it become a standard? i hated buying pre-standard crap for 802.11g, boy was that a big mistake. firmware upgrades didn't help, i just ended up buying a 802.11g compliant card after the standard was ratified. my advice is to not buy pre-standard ****.

Too late, there's thousands of us out here with new Apple machines equipped this way

Among other rumors floating around the mill looking forward to tomorrow's Keynote Speech, minor details have emerged about upcoming use of 802.11n wireless networking. Found in the MacWorld Conference & Expo PI: Advanced Wireless outlook, the description starts with: Apple has been rumored to be including the faster "n" soon-to-be standard (up to 600 mb/s), with recent curiosities of the protocol showing up in the latestiMac, MacBook Pro and most recently MacBooks.

Readers also note the recent lack of any availability of Airport base stations on Apple's website, with a refresh to the base station rumored as recently as September of 2006.

Hey I have one of the new cd2 macbook pro's, is there a way I can tell if I have the 802.11n wireless card pre-installed?
