Intel has for several years been the main sponsor of a larger wireless
research project at UC Berkeley - It seems that these initiatives have
reached a point where it is time to begin making some money.

Intel is basicly working together with the 'usual suspects', through
standard "channels" ... nothing new in the world (and presently, don't
expect Intel will start sponsoring grass-root structures or give away
their platforms for cheap)...

Just my words ..
