TI Announces Ultra Low Power Bluetooth

 Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) will develop chips for low-power devices based on a new short-range wireless Bluetooth specification, the company said Tuesday.

Ultra Low Power (ULP) Bluetooth will have a range up to 10 meters--similar to Class 2 Bluetooth but using less power.  According to the article, a ULP device powered by a button-cell battery will have an average operating life of one year!
