xG Technology, the makers of the xMax wireless
broadband technology, (previously discussed here) hope it will surpass
the much ballyhooed Wimax by using less power, and by operating in
lower-frequency spectrum. The company claims the technology is capable
of sending 40Mbit/s of data over 15 miles, using less than 1 watt of
power.
