WiFi N... testing the fastest wireless network...

The speed WiFi N

I don't know if speed is important or not or if it depends of the case. What if I'm sure, its that speed is a great argument of marketing and helps you sell more for sure. Many users "bite" when the seller quickly explains that a wireless access point is faster than another.

That argument is just good enough! But anyone who knows how WiFi works, knows that the speed of a WiFi network is crucial when the user sets the fastest speed and good Hot Spots and you can see the smiles appearing on the faces of the whole bunch of users.

Consequently, only in certain cases we can take advantage of the higher speed, but it depends on the equipment and the technology used as well. The problem of compatibility "Forcing" a technology like 802.11n "together" with 802.11b and 802.11g means a great "sacrifice" of technical resources.

The transmission of information in wireless 802.11b and 802.11g wireless networks takes place in the 2.4 GHz band, which is heavily populated, and only has 3 non-overlapping channels with a width of 20 MHz per channel, where the information goes up and down. 802.11n is proposed to use 40 GHz channels wide.

To reconcile the two technologies, they are "degraded" to 802.11n, losing many of its advantages. In 802.11a works in the 5 GHz band, much more populated and least 8 channels to choose from, so, too many people advocates of "prevent" that 802.11n include the option of running at 2.4 GHz.

According to Steve Jobs, the iPad 2 heralds the beginning of the post-PC era. However, given the fact that the iPad is by any measure a type of computer, that distinction seems mostly promotional. The iPad, however, is part of another kind of revolution as more people then ever are choosing to watch live TV on PC and tablets as opposed to standard television set.

As far as delivering film and TV is concerned, Apple has the upper hand on other devices thanks to iTunes. If you have Apple TV or a home theater PC, you may already be watching downloads of Blu-ray and DVD movie releases. The iPad 2 has a mirroring feature which gives it the ability via Apple's Digital AV Adapter or VGA Adapter to display every app, web page, presentation, video, movie or photo on an HDTV. Its ability to output 1080p resolution with surround sound gives it the potential to be a highly effective device for delivering visual entertainment.

Netflix Dominates the Streaming Online Content Business

Netflix Dominates the Streaming Online Content Business

Netflix is a giant in the streaming online content business, with more than 20 million subscribers and 20,000 movies and TV programs for its online product. Surprisingly, it has yet to attract much competition in the space.

In spite of its success, Netflix remains alone in streaming lots of movies and TV shows for a monthly fee. Perhaps it is because they are too powerful to attract competitors, but that scenario is likely to change. Wal-Mart, Amazon, and Best Buy are all eying the space, and Hulu and Dish are pondering similar moves as well. Netflix is still focused on growing its business, but with its US market close to saturated the company is looking overseas to expand. Hollywood would love to see more competitive pressure on Netflix, because they fear that Netflix is getting too big, too fast.
