Yep I just read about it to. I don't know if my laptop can take it yet but I have a lot of USB devices and it would be great to have wireless usb.

Although in my case it wouldn't eliminate the rat's nest of wires behind my desk it might make a small dent in it, but I can't be sure right now. Wireless USB 1.0 offers speeds comparable to USB 2.0 wired standards for a distance of 3 meters or around 10 feet. It can transmit further but then the speed will drop off some what. Still depending on what it was you were doing for example an unattended backup job that runs over night wouldn't really require maximum speed and 10 feet from the source is still a decent range I would figure. Just a little news tip for the folks out there is all this is for right now.
