The Reports of Bluetooth's Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

Recently, I've read several editorials discussing the death of the short-range wireless networking standard called Bluetooth. I found these to be extremely surprising, as I think 2003 will be long remembered as the year Bluetooth finally caught on.

I don't see how anyone can argue that Bluetooth is on its last legs. Just take a look at how many handhelds have been released this year with it built in. From Palm there's the Tungsten T2 and T3. From HP we have the iPAQ h1945, h2215, h4155, h4355, h5155, and h5555. Sony released the Clie UX50, UX40, TG50, and NZ90. Even ASUS has put out the A620BT and Tapwave has announced the Zodiac. All of these models have Bluetooth, and I'm sure there's a few I missed.
