Progress
Bluetooth internal publication of version 0.7
– Interoperability tested between some members
– Publication of 0.9 expected late this year
11073 agreement on base protocol
– Defining first device specializations now
– Ballot on first release expected late this year
Joint interoperability testing planned
Strong industry interest
