LOS ANGELES, May 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Airgo Networks, Inc. has announced that Alienware has unveiled two new laptops featuring Gen3 True MIMO technology from Airgo. Built around AMD's Turion 64 X2 mobile technology multi-core processor, Airgo's Gen3 True MIMO chipsets and Nvidia's dual SLI graphics processors, the 17-inch Aurora m9700 and 19-inch Aurora mALX notebooks from Alienware provide users with faster-than-Ethernet wireless networking speeds. Both products are ideal for high performance wireless gaming with complete coverage for every room in the home.
The use of Gen3 True MIMO technology by Alienware underscores the growing adoption of Airgo's technology in the PC OEM market and mirrors its rapid market share growth in the consumer and SOHO retail markets.
The Alienware Aurora m9700 and Aurora mALX deliver serious gamers two of the most powerful, full-featured and complete gaming solutions available today. The models' large screen size, lightweight and powerful core processor, state-of-the-art graphics processor and ability to network at faster-than-wired speeds all combine to deliver a notebook solution that jumps ahead of other competitive offerings.
"By integrating Airgo's True MIMO technology directly into the Alienware Aurora m9700 and Aurora mALX notebooks, Alienware has given its audience a solution that blows everything else out of the water," said Beau Beck, Vice President of Business Development for Airgo. "Airgo's embedded Gen3 True MIMO technology makes high-performance mobile gaming a reality."
"We are very excited about Alienware's powerful new SLI graphics-based mobile solutions that feature Airgo Gen3 True MIMO technology," said Mark Vena, Vice President of Marketing for Alienware. "Because high performance users are increasingly embracing mobile platforms, Airgo's Gen3 True MIMO technology underscores Alienware's ongoing commitment to delivering the highest performance systems featuring uncompromised processing, graphics, storage, display and wireless technologies."
Airgo's True MIMO technology has been adopted as the core of the new IEEE 802.11n MIMO interoperability standard. Products featuring Airgo True MIMO Gen3 are fully 802.11a/b/g compatible, are Wi-Fi certified, and can be used with any other Wi-Fi certified 802.11 device on a network. Airgo's third generation True MIMO chipset supports TCP/IP networking throughput of more than 140Mbps with uncompressed traffic, surpassing the performance of wired 100BaseT Ethernet. In real-world third party testing, Airgo's Gen 3 True MIMO products are proven to substantially outperform any other chipset offering in the Wi-Fi market, with faster speed, longer range and higher reliability. In addition, Airgo's True MIMO Gen3 chipset features three integrated radios, resulting in a reduction in the overall Bill of Material cost and a reduction in power consumption.

About Airgo Networks, Inc.
The founders of Airgo Networks have pioneered a wireless communication technique known as Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). A breakthrough in wireless, MIMO OFDM has been adopted as the foundation for defining the new IEEE 802.11n standard for next generation Wi-Fi(R). Airgo is first-to-market with 802.11a/b/g-compliant MIMO enhanced chipset, software and reference design solutions. Now in its third generation, Airgo's True MIMO(TM) technology has surpassed the speed of wireline connections, enabling the most bandwidth-intensive applications and eliminating the need for wires at home, at work, and in public places. Founded in January 2001, the company is headquartered in Palo Alto, California, USA.
