Agere Systems today announced that its Wi-Fi networking chip set is being used by original design manufacturer Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) for what the company claims to be the industry's first small-form-factor 802.11b/Bluetooth wireless module specifically designed for handheld consumer devices. USI is incorporating Agere's solution in both a small-form-factor Wi- Fi/Bluetooth module and a Wi-Fi-only module, on display this week at the Bluetooth Developers Congress.">
