Cameras using Certified Wireless USB links rated at 480Mbits/sec could be on sale as soon as this Christmas, according to vendors at the Intel Developer Forum. A disk drive with the link, which uses the UWB wireless signal (see here), was on also on show.

The links could also be embedded in PCs and, eventually, mobile phones. USB2 dongles will be available to bring the technology to existing PCs to allow them to swap files quickly with peripherals.

UWB, whether using Bluetooth or USB protocols, is designed for short-range device-to-device links; one aim is to use it to replace the mass of wires needed to link up home-entertainment systems.
