n works through mimo (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) technique wich works by using multiple antennas that handels traffic simultanious.
There is a lot resistance against using these technics as a standard.
But 1 day after the decission was made Broadcom (http://www.broadcom.com/) released a Intensi-fi 802.11n chipset..

Good news!!!

I've been waiting for this and...........will wait a little longer 'cause the hardware is probably going to be expensive.
