"Cambridge Consultants on Wednesday brought its "connected patient" concept to life with a low-cost wireless platform that lets medical devices deliver readings to a central monitor located at home, or to an online health record such as Google Health or Microsoft Health Vault.

The platform, called Vena, employs two emerging wireless standards, including the Infrared-based IEEE11073 and the Bluetooth Medical Device Profile. Vena embeds the two into a single chip as the combination of them ensures compatibility of data exchanged between different types of devices and the security in the transmitting of medical data." – Alan Cheslow

"Femtocell is a relatively young technology, which acts as an indoor miniature cell tower, giving users additional wireless coverage with the help of their home or office broadband connection. With UX-Zone, a user's Android home screen automatically changes to "Home" and "Office" modes when femtocell presence is detected.

Intrinsyc today said the possible uses extend much further than just Home and Office, though. For example, when a user enters a museum or particular retail store, the phone interface could change automatically to provide an optimized experience there." – Alan Cheslow

Heavily-backed WiGig Alliance to stream everything over 60GHz – http://www.engadget.com/2009/0…
"The newly formed WiGig Alliance aims to use unlicensed 60GHz waves in order to stream just about anything you can think of: HD video, images, phone contacts, instant messages, audio, etc. This "unified" approach differs from most other alternatives, which generally pick one niche (1080p video, for instance) and stick to it. If the more than 15 technology firms have their collective druthers, the WiGig specification will find its way into everything from set-top-boxes to telephones to home stereos, ready and willing to stream to other WiGig-enabled devices at a moment's notice." – Alan Cheslow

Virgin Media Trials 200 Mbps Service – http://gigaom.com/2009/05/06/v…
"Virgin will use DOCSIS 3.0 technology to offer the speeds, and claims the service will be faster than Cablenet’s service in Japan, which reaches 160 Mbps, and Cablevision’s 101 Mbps speeds in Long Island, N.Y.

Virgin Media will be testing applications consumers may be using regularly in the future, including entertainment services using HD and 3D TV as well as broadband content. It will also have the ability to deliver applications and support for home IT needs through the network, and connect a variety of Internet-ready devices such as video conferencing and home surveillance." – Alan Cheslow
