Wireless USB has been a long time coming. With huge data transfer speeds and a nice range, UWB and wireless USB could enable a whole new generation of connected home devices. IPTV and videoconferencing in your kitchen, anyone?

wondering about this 480m/bit throughput though. Be interested in a follow-up clip!
