Bluetooth is looking to get updated soon, and the announcement of what we can expect is coming April 21st.

The Bluetooth Special Interest Group will be announcing all of the new specifications for Bluetooth 3.0 on April 21st, and from what is being rumored, it seems everyone’s favorite wireless communications standard will be getting even better.  The biggest increase will come in the form of speed focused at the consumer electronics market which will allow you to move files between home devices quickly and efficently.  Until now the home market has not had much Bluetooth connectivity, but this is something they are looking to change with this new release.

For those of you who use Bluetooth headsets with your phones, you’ll be happy to know they are promising a new feature called “Enhanced Power Control”.  While there is no clue as to how this works, but the result of this will supposedly be less disconnects between your paired devices as you move them around such as putting them in a pocket or purse.  This has always been one of my personal biggest complaints about the technology, so hopefully this really will improve things.

Full details will be coming later this month.
