A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU Free Documentation License". $Date: 2003/06/16 13:57:15 $ Abstract The Infrared-HOWTO provides an introduction to Linux andinfrared devices and how to use the software provided by the Linux/IrDAproject. This package uses IrDA(TM) compliant standards. IrDA(TM) is anindustrial standard for infrared wireless communication, and most laptops madeafter January 1996 are equipped with an IrDA(TM) compliant infraredtransceiver. Infrared ports let you communicate with printers, modems, faxmachines, LANs, and other laptops or PDAs. Speed ranges from 2400bps to 4Mbps. The Linux/IrDA stack supports IrLAP, IrLMP, IrIAS, IrIAP, IrLPT, IrCOMM, IrOBEX, and IrLAN. Several of the protocols are implemented as both clients and servers. There is also support for multiple IrLAP connections, via several IrDA(TM) devices at once. The Linux/IrDA project started at the end of 1997 and its status is still experimental, so please don't expect every feature working straight.

    Spinoff: Handspring

    Stanford eCorner Spinoff: Handspring Jeff Hawkins, Numenta October 23, 2002 Video URL: http://ecorner.stanford.edu/videos/43/Spinoff-Handspring Hawkins shares the various reasons why he and his team finally spun off from 3Com to start Handspring. Although they were reluctant to leave and start a company from scratch, they felt that Palm did not belong in 3Com- a networking company. Palm was the only healthy division in 3Com and they could not continue growing and competing with a financial hand tied behind their backs. Transcript We were then a division of 3Com at Palm. And we were doing our thing. We were having a fair amount of success. We introduced a series of products, including the Palm 3 and the Palm 5. But actually, we left. Now again, I was reluctant this time. This is when we started Handspring. I was reluctant to do this. We didn't want to leave; starting a company is a lot of work. Just who wants to do that again? But in turns out that we felt at the time, and I still believe it was the right thing, that Palm really didn't belong as part of 3Com. 3Com was a networking company and it sick. It was ailing. They were not very profit. Their margins were falling. We were the only healthy division in the entire company and they were not reporting our earnings but they were using it to prop up the rest of the business. So we were growing and made it look like 3Com was growing but really, it was only Palm that was growing.
