The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) have finally announced that Bluetooth 4.0 is ready to roll. The press release indicated that the new spec will be brought to market by the end of this quarter which gives them little over 2 months to get things together. This doesn’t mean devices will be ready by that time though, but that they can start building devices with the standard.
The new Bluetooth 4.0 technology steps right past 3.0 and improves energy efficiency allowing it to be a more desirable option in mobile devices.
