Imation has announced the launch of Apollo Pro WX external hard drive compatible with WUSB technology. The goal of wireless USB (WUSB) is to connect peripherals such as printers, external hard disk drives, sound cards, media players and even video monitors to the PC wirelessly. Wireless USB works on the UWB frequency range (Ultra Wide Band, from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz), while Bluetooth technology works on 2.4 GHz frequency, the same used by IEEE 802.11 wireless networks (Wi-Fi) and its maximum theoretical transfer rate is the same as USB 2.0: 480 Mbps (60 MB/s) if the device is within 3 meters (9.84 feet) from the PC or 110 Mbps (13.75 MB/s) if the device is within 10 meters (32.8 feet) from the PC. Apollo Pro WX will reach the market in Q4 2008 in capacities ranging from 250 GB to 1.5 TB. No word on pricing.
