Wireless fidelity.

2006-07-01 03:09:23 · answer #1 · answered by bopbo 3 · 0 0

Short for wireless fidelity and is meant to be used generically when referring of any type of 802.11 network, whether 802.11b, 802.11a, dual-band, etc. The term is promulgated by the Wi-Fi Alliance.
Any products tested and approved as "Wi-Fi Certified" (a registered trademark) by the Wi-Fi Alliance are certified as interoperable with each other, even if they are from different manufacturers. A user with a "Wi-Fi Certified" product can use any brand of access point with any other brand of client hardware that also is certified. Typically, however, any Wi-Fi product using the same radio frequency (for example, 2.4GHz for 802.11b or 11g, 5GHz for 802.11a) will work with any other, even if not "Wi-Fi Certified."

Formerly, the term "Wi-Fi" was used only in place of the 2.4GHz 802.11b standard, in the same way that "Ethernet" is used in place of IEEE 802.3. The Alliance expanded the generic use of the term in an attempt to stop confusion about wireless LAN interoperability.

is a brand originally licensed by the Wi-Fi Alliance to describe the underlying technology of wireless local area networks (WLAN) based on the IEEE 802.11 specifications. Wi-Fi is now so pervasive, and the term so generic, that the brand is no longer protected[citation needed] and it appears in Webster's dictionary.

Contra: Your US $ 70.- Kindle is a book with empty pages. For the content you have to pay an extra price. Who ever will buy an empty book? "Kindle"" is standard in fiction. In non fictional literature the old pdf still is leading. That cannot be handled by your empty book for US$ 70.- even if the pdf is free. All electronic devices depend from energy sources and are vulnerable to electro magnetic shock waves. If suddenly the big blackout is coming and all electronically integrated circuits hang themselves up forever with a bright flash you still can use the flash to set something on fire which gives you the necessary light to read the text "Survival after WMD explosions" in a book. Books on "Kindles" are not the property of the Kindle owner but remain property of the seller and can be deleted by the seller at any time through a "back door" in the "Kindle" software. That was demonstrated recently by Amazon having deleted all publications which were legally purchased by Amazon customers but Amazon having legal disagreements with the authors. This way all risks of copyright infringments and unlawful procedures are loaded down on the customer's shoulder. That alone makes the "Kindles" obsolete even if Amazon would pay US $ 70.- in order that customers take them.
