Here's a very interesting rumor from MacOSrumors about Lucent/Apple wireless plans:
"Rumors are rapidly building regarding a new Lucent Technologies chipset that will not only shrink Apple's AirPort hardware and add 54Mbps (compared to today's 11Mbps) bandwidth support as previously reported, but would also support the popular Bluetooth wireless interface technology over standard and high-performance AirPort bands....allowing Apple to support Bluetooth without conflicting with its existing AirPort hardware or adding to the wholesale costs of its computers. If the rumors prove true and Apple does plan to be the first to market with this technology, it could be a major strategic advantage."
AirPort (802.11b) and Bluetooth working together? That would be a very good thing.
