CSIRO standing firm against new Wi-Fi rollout

Australia's CSIRO is holding up a new super fast home wireless system, claiming it holds key patents. It has refused to give guarantees it will not sue companies breaching its patents. This has caused the standard setting agency (IEEE) to delay confirming the new super fast Wi-Fi "N" standard. CSIRO successfully sued other Wi-Fi developers last year claiming they were in breach for earlier versions of Wi-Fi. Litigation is continuing with other developers.
