We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Embedded wireless", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Embedded modules make wireless LAN access easy from Ezurio, which we summarised at the time by saying "Ezurio has embedded all the drivers, stacks and programming capabilities required to implement Wireless LAN into one small module". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Quad-band antenna comes onboard from Alpha Micro Components: "Miniature GSM antenna range is aimed at the next generation of embedded wireless applications".
 
In October 2007, we covered the news from Qualcomm concerning its Gobi global mobile internet - take a look at Mobile internet solution released for laptops which says: "The Gobi solution is meeting the demand from notebook manufacturers for worldwide connectivity capabilities beyond Wi-Fi".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Lantronix, Wireless design contest offers cash prizes again, as well as US companies embrace wireless from Ezurio, and Wireless SoCs embed nonvolatile memory from Kilopass Technology.
