BlueTooth v4.0 coming soon

The BlueTooth Special Interest Group, or SIG, announced last week the details on the upcoming v4.0 and how it would revolutionize the short range wireless data transfer world.
V4.0 will feature three specifications that will be available on various devices.

• Classic BlueTooth, available in the types of BlueTooth enabled devices you use on a normal basis
• High Speed BlueTooth, for use in small devices such as watches and remote controls
• Low Energy BlueTooth, which will work well in pedometers and other devices with sensors.

The BlueTooth SIG also claimed that there's a chance the range of enabled devices will leap from 30 feet to up to 200 feet and maybe more in different devices.
Completion of the specifications is projected for the end of June of this year, with compatible devices by the end of the year.
