Comments on: An energy-conscious wireless technology

A new technology called xMax could help significantly extend the battery life of mobile devices.

Is this for REAL?

Sounds too good to be true. Although I wonder if the licensing stuff could not actually make this thing die. If it really is as good as xG claim, some major players should do a buy-out instead of paying 4-ever. A $BN or so should suffice IMO.

Bottom line: xMax's claims for vastly less transmitter power are easily dismissed with the Shannon channel capacity theorem.
