This show examines the new and alternative forms of wireless technologies currently being rolled out commercially in Australia. These include the 'iburst' and 'unwired' systems which have significant advantages over the 802.11 technology. These new systems are likely to become global standards once the WiMax Protocols are ratified. Listen to the show and learn how Australia is leading the world as a major test bed, albeit in a commercial environment, for these systems.

Each month we will create a podcast discussing emerging and developing issues in the life sciences, technology, and medical science sectors especially those developments which have an Australian flavour but with global impact. We will place a special focus around the commercial interfaces of these sectors and the convergence of different technology sectors. We will examine how these developments impact our lives going forward. This program will be of special interest to listeners in many countries.
