| There are some rumors that Kenwood is coming out with its own D-Star radio. From the sounds of it, it may be a somewhat collaborative effort. It may come in the package of a relabeled ICOM ID-800.

OLD!! Icom showed off it's new multimedia radio at the 2003 Hamvention in
Dayton.Steve Bible had a chance to play around with the data radio
They sport a 1.2 GHz spread spectrum data tranceiver radio with 4 to 8 kb/s digital voice channel, analog
voice, and
digital..(you name it) at a whopping 128 kb/s. This does video, ftp, ip .... just about anything a techie can
imagine. The radio is controled by either it's included front end control panel, or computer via USB connection. The
data is sent/recieved to device by ethernet connection. I say device because the radio can be connected to just about
anything that is associated with a IP address. Steve sucessfully connected it to a wireless access port, and thinks
it
could be connected to one of the ethernet video cameras now available from dlink and linksys. This radio opens
up a whole new world of what you can do with amateur radio! Right now it is advertised in AES for $$$$1,350. Not
cheap! But for all it does, it is contained in a very small package.
