December 10, 2009 ? Wireless Gigabit Alliance (WiGig), the organization advancing the adoption and widespread use of 60 GHz wireless technology worldwide, today announced the completion of its unified wireless specification. The WiGig specification enables high performance wireless display and audio and provides data transfer rates more than 10 times faster than today?s wireless LANs, extending Wi‐Fi technology while supporting backward compatibility with existing Wi‐Fi devices.
The completed specification is now ready for member review and is anticipated to be made available to WiGig adopter members in Q1 2010.?When we launched the WiGig Alliance in May, we announced our plan to complete the industry?s first unified 60 GHz specification by Q4 2009, and we are proud to deliver on this promise to the industry,? said Dr. Ali Sadri, president and chairman of the Wireless Gigabit Alliance. ?We?re rapidly paving the way for the introduction of the next generation of high‐performance wireless products ? PCs, mobile handsets, TVs and displays, Blu‐ray disc players, digital cameras and many more.?

I don't feel wifi is too slow, I would just like to see it more widespread.
IMO technology advances and increasingly larger file/page sizes are making it more and more difficult for those with limited money or technology to use many sites and resources.

Next up from the Obama administration, free government mandated wifi paid for by the rich.

I was thinking more of developing nations/less wired areas not being able to keep up as sites and info take longer and longer to download.
A simple solution domestically is expanding the RANGE of the wifi signals and making it standard in public buildings & spaces - no taxes required, just more ad space.
One airport I flew through recently had Google sponsoring free wifi for the holidays.
