next-generation wireless connectivity, empowering Toshiba laptop users
with the capability to access data-intensive applications, such as
media streaming, live video conferencing and mobile TV through a
broadband-speed wireless internet connection with a geographical range
that far exceeds what's possible via a Wi-Fi(TM) wireless hotspot.

processor or WiMAX technology are currently under development, with an
anticipated target availability of Q4 2008.
