Microsoft has confirmed that it is working on a new wireless adapter for the Xbox 360 console that is compatible with the new 802.11n specification. The current (original) WiFi adapter is compatible with 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g wireless networking, but the new speedy 802.11n will soon be available to Xbox 360 users should they choose to buy the additional component for the console.
Over the past few weeks, several photographs and other source of information (such as FCC filings) have shown up and been examined thoroughly - pretty much revealing that Microsoft had such a product in the works.
The company has not yet revealed all details about the new adapter (not least how much it costs, or whether or not it will completely replace the existing adapter).
No launch date or potential price has been revealed by the company either.
