January 2008 doc. : IEEE 802. 15 -08/0073 r 0 Bluetooth SIG Relationship to IEEE 802. 15 Bluetooth SIG Specifications are backwards compatible with Bluetooth V 1. 2 specification that is equivalent to IEEE 802. 15. 1 a. As with Zig. Bee and IEEE 802. 15. 4, the Bluetooth SIG has extended use of IEEE 802. 15 standard while continuing to conform to existing standard. Bluetooth SIG is also working on enhancement to integrate IEEE 802. 11 -2007 conforming radios as an optional high speed channel. Future work may include adoption of IEEE 802. 15. 3 c as an optional very high speed channel. Submission 2 Dr. John R. Barr, Motorola

January 2008 doc. : IEEE 802. 15 -08/0073 r 0 Bluetooth pairs with cake for 10 th birthday Posted Jan 8 th 2008 11: 54 PM by Engadget Everyone raise your glasses for a toast, will you? The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (better known as the Bluetooth SIG to its pals) is throwing itself a little party celebrating ten years since its inception. It's been one heck of a decade, too, considering that the SIG started with just five members and has since grown to over 10, 000; in that same span, wireless headsets have become all but ubiquitous, the standard has come to countless products covering hundreds of product categories, and a grand total of 1. 5 billion-plus devices have shipped with that now-famous stylized "B" emblazoned somewhere on their shell. So just how does a special interest group shake its moneymaker on such a momentous occasion? A spat of playful Bluejacking, perhaps? Nah, nothing that saucy -- just a private party for SIG members at CES. Here's to another ten, Bluetooth. Submission 4 07 -Sep-21 Dr. John R. Barr, Motorola 4
