Convergence

PDAs used to be exclusively about PIMs --
Personal Information Managers, or carrying your
schedule, contacts, and perhaps some important
text documents around with you. But Convergence,
the coming together of Computing, Communications,
Content, and Consumer Electronics, has expanded
the "lowly" pocket organizer in new, very
multimedia directions.

Wireless

The ways that notebooks and PDAs were flinging
their packets through the air with abandon
two-way paging networks
circuit-switched cellular CDPD (Cellular Digital
Packet Data)
HomeRF
802.11b's 11-megabits/second wireless LANs
128 kilobits/second Ricochet networks
384 kilobits/second of data over Ericsson's
experimental EDGE cellular system

23
Wireless

Today's typical rate is 14.4 kilobits/second
40 kilobits/second reached Portland in Aug. 2001
using ATT Wireless GPRS (General Packet Radio
Service)
In about a year, ATT plans to upgrade this
system to EDGE (Enhanced Data for GSM Evolution)
technology, which should raise the peak data rate
to a respectable 388 kilobits/second
The first upgrade for Sprint PCS will give
customers always-on connections to the Internet
or corporate networks at speeds of up to 144
kilobits per second--more than double the speed
of the fastest dial-up modem.
By the end of 2002, the division will complete a
second upgrade that will double the network's top
speed to 288 kilobits per second, with a jump to
movie-capable 3-megabit speeds tentatively set
for 2004.

On Wednesday May 17, 2000 the Bluetooth
promoter companies
announced the
availability of a new figure mark to be
used along with
Bluetooth applications.
The new figure mark is based on the
Bluetooth
history as it is made up of the
two runic characters "H"
and "B" short
for "Harald Bluetooth". Harald Bluetooth
was the
Danish king who unified
Denmark and Norway in the 10th
century

Broadband Internet

The Federal Communications Commission says that
the number of homes and small businesses with
broadband connections was up 57 during the first
half of 2000, although that only totals 4.3
million connections
By 2003 however, Forrester Research expects there
will be 32 million broadband subscribers.
And by 2005, they expect that 191 million devices
(only 36 of them traditional PCs) will have
broadband connections to the Internet

33
Home Connection

The idea that cable and DSL will fill the bill
over the long term seems to me at best wishful
thinking, driven by the desperate need to save
the legacy investments in the worlds largest
above ground copper mines. The fact that we can
not quite imagine what we would need a gigabit
Ethernet home connection for today is in large
part a result of the fact that we dont have one.
Charles Davis

34
Fiber Optic

Internet traffic doubling every 100 days
23 million miles of fiber-optic cable had been
laid by the end of 1998, and Renaissance
Worldwide predicts a 500-fold increase by 2002
45 Mbps 60K/mo in 1995, 15K/mo now
data over fiber is doubling every 9 months

35
Internet Exceeds 2 Billion Pages

July 10, 2000 2.1 billion unique, publicly
available pages exist
more than 7 million pages added each day
double in size by early 2001
highest rate of growth is still to come

Although the most prominent feature of this tiny
device is the 340 megabyte IBM microdrive, this
"Matchbox PC" is a complete, fully-functional 66
MHz 486-SX-based PC from TIQIT that will run
Windows 95/98 or NT, or Linux! (It will run at
100 MHz if you add a heat sink.) Add its port
expander module, and you get all the standard PC
ports, including built-in Ethernet. According to
its manufacturer, the MPC is available now for
1,495.

MEMS

The MEMS (microelectromechanical systems)
community has developed some truly intriguing
products from digital projectors that contain
millions of electrically driven micromirrors to
microscale motion sensors that sit in cars ready
to deploy airbags.
MEMS represent the marriage of semiconductor
processing to mechanical engineering at a very
small scale. And it is a field that has grown
enormously during the past decade. Numerous
companies from the semiconductor giants to
fledgling start-ups are all now scrambling for
a piece of the action at the microscale. Yet very
little has been done with MEMS at sizes below one
micrometre. This stands in striking contrast to
the recent developments in mainstream
microelectronics where chips are now
mass-produced with features as small as 0.18
microns.
The time is ripe for a concerted exploration of
nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS)

Fiona Harvey

"Most man-made materials come from heating,
grinding and crushing. But scientists can
instill them with remarkable properties by
building them atom-by-atom."
"Nanomaterials have many advantages. Where
conventionally produced materials tend to be
gross and irregular in composition, with many
flaws, nanomaterials approach an elegant
perfection. By defining the structure of a
substance on such a small scale, scientists can
create satisfyingly regular and even flawless
shapes."

The Space Elevator

The Space Elevator concept is a structure
extending from the surface of the Earth to
geo-stationary Earth orbit (GEO). Its center of
mass is at GEO such that the entire structure
orbits the Earth in sync with the Earths
rotation maintaining a stationary position over
its base attachment at the equator.
The idea of the space elevator was first raised
in 1960 by Russian engineer Yuri Artsutanov, and
rehashed several times in the years that
followed. But the idea went largely unnoticed
until 1979, when Arthur C. Clarke used it as the
centerpiece for his novel The Fountains of
Paradise.
Nano-technology has led to the development of a
carbon nanotube material that exhibits strengths
100 times stronger than steel. This material is a
prime candidate for the space-segment of the
space elevator structure.
