It may be pie in the sky dreams but I have a possible answer for why Apple could both disband it’s Airport WiFi team (mostly into the iOS area) and still be working on a WiFi Wireless charging system. Ask yourself this. What is the one product Apple sells that still uses a non Apple OS?
Spoiler: Airport base stations.
Now ask, what team currently has an OS that supports all of the fancy new mesh networking, Homekit/bluetooth/Siri etc…….
Spoiler: iOS
So, maybe the “AirPort” team was moved to iOS to create and new series of routers?
One can dream!
