Bluetooth technology has moved fast in terms of standards adoption, early release of chip sets and a few demo products. Nonetheless, Bluetooth is in early stages of development from the point of view of its adoption in enduser applications.
To be more specific, Bluetooth technology is in a period where first release of specifications have been developed and adopted by the core members. Chips sets have been developed by several vendors and have been released to systems integrators. Software development kits have also been released by major vendors. A number of developers conferences have been held in Europe and North America. Now, the second level of developers like 3COM and extended Systems have got into the act to develop systems development tools that business application developers can use.
