The channels for 802.11a are 10 mhz wide and every other channel can be used to provide 8 NON-Overlapping channels.

In 802.11b/g in the U.S. you can use any of 11 channels you like as your center frequency but there will be interference with other stations using channels less than 5 from you channel. That is not to say that running say 6 access points on 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 won't work - they will work but there will be mutual interference, retransmissions, etc.

They said 11 and 11 usually means 11... They'll release the details with time just wait a little bit.

Also don't just think of the US there are teams in Israel, Puerto Rico, Chile, Brazil, Netherlands, Great Britain, and hopefully more next year.
