The Journey to Cloud Native
The impact to the market is that by the end of next year, 50% of shipped Intel based PCs will have the embedded capability of operating as Access Points.
I'd think this might have a "small" impact on dedicated equipment access points, no? ;) OK - maybe a big impact...
I'd also think this announcement and the resulting market evolution will have a profound impact on the "thin" vs "thick" access point debate? Yes?
Doesn't this also add fuel to the LWAPP / CAPWAP engine? More coverage on this evolution, please...
From what I can tell - the predominant architecture of the WLAN just changed overnight, from AP centric to PC centric.... I'd think that might have some profound implications on the entire WLAN OEM industry.
