Click bait article. But what I find interesting about the whole affair is apple didn't plan for it to happen. Guarantee there'll never be another demo done over WiFi. If they need wireless, I bet they'll setup some very short-range signal in another frequency. Or would that be illegal?
- Saad_M 16y agoThe problem is that it seems to me Apple wants to demonstrate their products using the same connectivity options that their customers will be using. If they start using other connectivity options that aren’t available to the end user then a credibility gap could easily be formed in the demonstration of their products.
- jsz0 16y agoThere are a couple channels in the 2.4Ghz spectrum you can use at low power. They'd have to modify the wifi drivers on the iPhone to tune those channels and modify the wireless bridge to broadcast them. Probably more likely they'd just use wired Ethernet via the dock connector. If they wanted to be authentic they could rate-shape it to match typical wifi speeds.
