ComputerWorld's Peter Judge reports on the Wi-Fi Alliance's announcement of its logo for Draft N Wi-Fi -- with dozens of Draft N products already released and many more on the way, it's about time...

"Draft N should go up to five times faster than current 802.11g wireless and have twice the range," Judge writes. "Although the standard is not expected to be formally complete until at least 2008, the second draft is solid enough to build product on, and Draft N is a part of the latest Intel specifications for Centrino laptops. The Alliance will test these and other products for interoperability with each other, and the ability to work with older standards."

As CNET News' Marguerite Reardon notes, "The Wi-Fi Alliance doesn't typically certify products before a standard is adopted, but representatives for the group say that getting interoperable products out on the market is very important."
