As yet there is precious little evidence WUSB won't bring its own 'issues' and incompatibilities (except for massive wishful thinking on some people's parts) and little about the standard that is compelling to the countless people who use BT daily without problems and will see no need to replace all BT enabled devices for an untried and untested new form of wireless.
Nolo contendo.
I simply want to be able to do things as quickly and as efficiently as possible. BT is nice and I do use it.... with mixed results. Perhaps I need to re-read a manual or get practice.
I like the current USB 2.0 plug in and it works.
I'm just hoping that WUSB would be the same only... on/off.
Imagine. You plug in a device once, the devices are auto paired then unplug and still they work. Wishful thinking? You betcha! :lol:
