Hang on there, that's less than 12MB per second. At 50Mb/s, the existing USB wireless can do it too, no ?
How is this supposed to be an improvement ? Theoretically, at 50Mb/s a 700Mb pirate copy should be downloaded in 14 seconds. At 120Mb/s it should take just under 6 seconds. That would be progress.
M, K, B & b are ISO standards. Respectively 10^6, 10^3, Bell & barn. The correct form in ISO for Megabit is M2bit (the 2 should be superscripted so it looks like M squared, but this form is acceptable to ISO)
However in the context of computer science where the ISO standards are not commonly used, b is bit, B is byte, K is 2^10, M is 2^20.
To avoid confusion you simply need to pay attention and take note that the discussion does not involve nuclear physics :P
""compared with the 50Mb per second currently available." Wrong, wrong, wrong. Wrong. 802.11n draft wireless (which has been available for what, almost 2 years now?) is 270Mb/s. If I know anything about which number is bigger than the other number... "
Apparently you don't know anything, 802.11n is not WUSB. Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
An Mb is a megabarn, a huge cross section. The "b" is the abbreviation for "barn", not "bit". Surely you mean Mbit, don't you? Just trying to make your article a bit more intelligible.

A wise man once said, "Standards are great - there are so many to choose from." Why not just bodge USB onto a faster Bluetooth?

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Wrong.
