On September 16, Microsoft will unveil its second-generation Broadband Networking product line, which will feature 802.11g wireless products that run at 54Mbps, a dramatic improvement over the current line's 802.11b-based 11Mbps. In addition to the standard desktop and notebook computer wireless adapters and wireless base stations, Microsoft will also unveil an 802.11g-based Xbox Wireless Adapter that will let gamers access online multiplayer games wirelessly for the first time. The company will also unveil a new line of PC mouse devices and keyboards. The new mouse devices feature interference-reducing wireless technology and dramatically better battery life than previous models--as much as 6 months, the company says. In early 2004, the company will introduce wired versions of its new keyboards and mouse devices. | ||

| Probably not, given that your average broadband connection is around 2Mbps, though there's a possibility it could help because you'll have more bandwidth to handle the overhead of the associated wireless protocols (security, etc.). |

| battery life of 6 months? That'll translate to about 10 days for a gamer just like the current 2-3 months translates to 4-5 days today :) |
