Two of the top motherboard makers of Taiwan, Asustek and Micro-Star, reported to introduce wireless enabled motherboards after they have achieved satisfying results during recent months of testing and development. Micro-Star International Co. Ltd. will launch the world's first bluetooth-featuring motherboards, of which samples were presented during the recent CeBIT 2002 in Hannover. The company will unvail the related applications jointly with tIntel Corp., new Hewlett-Packard Co., Sony-Ericsson, and bluetooth chipset company CSR next week at a press conference.

The desktop computer that contains the motherboard will have an antenna outside the case which will enable the bluetooth-enabled peripherals to be well connected to the desktop platform.

Besides the MSI, Asustek Computer Inc's vice president announced that the company would start to deliver its own-developed wireless LAN card and access point products this month, and set to debut the first wireless communications-enabled notebook computer in June.,
