Doesn't that sound like something that should be in the next great sci-fi novel?

I suppose I should have quoted the article...

It is about the next version of wifi

quote:
The consortium designed its specification to support speeds of up to 600Mbps, and is considering the inclusion of other advanced technologies -- including Space Time Block Coding (STBC) and beamforming – to allow systems to deliver greater range for wireless products across multiple market segments and support advanced multimedia applications.

I have no idea what this means and don't care.

But don't the words just sound so freakin' awesome? I want to write a sci-fi novel for nanowrimo (if I keep saying this, maybe it will really happen...) and I WISHED I made up these words so I could put them in it!

Um, you can still do it anyway. Not the making up the words bit, but the writing the NaNovel bit and using the words in a way they weren't originally intended.
