CSIRO Wins WiFi Patent Settlement
That little Aussie battler, CSIRO, could be in for billions in unpaid royalties since establishing it's patent for 802.11a and 802.11g Wi-Fi against Hewlett Packard.
CSIRO wins landmark wi-fi settlement - ABC News
Since the Australian science agency received a patent for its IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g Wi-Fi products in January 1996, the technology has been adopted as an industry standard by most notebooks and desktop computers around the world.
With Hewlett Packard down, they are now going after Intel, Dell, Toshiba, Asus, Netgear, D-Link, Belkin, SMC, Accton, 3-Com, Buffalo, Microsoft and Nintendo.
Australia may well have a CSIRO led economic recovery.
