Intel internal WiMAX / WiFi card pops up in FCC database

Filed under: Wireless

Wondering what kind of radios are inside all those WiMAX-enabled laptops, ultraportables and MIDs (and, uh, sheets) we've been seeing lately? We've got a hunch they've all got something a lot like Intel's 5350 WiMAX / WiFi card tucked away in there, and now that it's hit the FCC, we're being treated to some class-A photography of the lil' bugger. Yep, still useless without a network -- but if that $12B Clearwire deal pans out, you might get to get familiar with the user manual located just beyond the read link.

C est mon dernier billet ici. Pointblog a ete lance en 2003 par Cyril Fievet (j'avais travaille son webzine Cybersphere des 1995) avant la mode des blogs. Mi-2005, la creation d'une societe, l'arrivee d'un associe n'ont pas repondu aux espoirs de notre petite equipe. Les collaborateurs de Pointblog et du defunt magazine pr Netizen n'ont pas ete tous et/ou integralement payes. Face a cette situation, debut 2006, Cyril, me laisse a la barre de la redaction en accord avec son associe, avant de se facher avec lui. Restant actionnaire, mais cessant toute collaboration, Cyril quitte cet univers. Contre son avis et celui des autres parties en presence, j'ai avance de l'argent (pour que les collaborateurs soient payes, j espere le recuperer integralement un jour) et relance Pointblog. Esperant naivement retablir la situation, j'ai augmente le volume d'information et le rythme : 7 jours sur 7, sans aucune interruption. Deux ans plus tard, je gere toujours quotidiennement Pointblog en toute independance et non remunere. Bien que og soit, pour certains, une reference qui figure dans le peloton de tete de plusieurs classements, j'ai echoue, malgre une belle audience, des milliers de billets et une dizaine de milliers de commentaires, merci a vous toutes et tous. La publicite ne semble pas avoir comble les dettes, des actions en justice de collaborateurs impayes sont en cours, la situation est bloquee, je n y peux plus rien. Dommage. A tout de suite, j espere.

US Senate Asks for National Security Letter Explanation

Demo_nobody@iread.metarss.com — Sat, 17 May 2008 03:26:00 -0400

A group of U.S. Senators are asking the FBI to explain a recent controversial National Security Letter sent to the Internet Archive. The Internet Archive was able to defeat the request with help from the EFF and the ACLU this past April. "The Internet Archive's case is only the third known legal challenge to NSLs, despite the fact that the the FBI issues tens of thousands a year -- more than 100,000 such letters were issued in 2004 and 2005 combined. But despite the lack of legal challenges from recipients at ISPs, telephone companies and credit bureaus, successive scathing reports from the Justice Department's Inspector General have found illegal letters and a willy-nilly culture within the bureau towards tracking their usage."
