Looking for some 802.11n WiFi for your mobile phone? Well Broadcam has a new 802.11n chip which integrates Bluetooth, and FM radio and it will get you data speeds of up to 50Mbps where available. And Broadcam says that all what will happen without that much battery consumption. Apparently the 802.11m combo chip is more efficient than 802.11g by allowing for single streams of data over a single antenna and packet aggregation.

The chips will arrive sometime late 2009 so that’s when we’ll probably playing with smartphones capable of draft-N speeds. Curious about pricing though!
