Carrier pigeon? Hmm, some (ancient/outdated ;-D ) info for you... Carrier pigeon is faster than ADSL connection in a 4GB data transfer across 80km as proven on 2009/09/09. See this public stunt to humilate monopoly landline operator 'Hellkom', oops, Telkom: http://www.itweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=26080:ip-over-avian-carrier&catid=147 Oh, BTW, that little birdie, Winston, is NOT a registered wireless technology, mind you... ;-D In the meantime now in 2012, we in sunny South Africa have more undersea cables, 3G, satellite, etc. and 4G is coming too... still Telkom is losing more and more landline phones... ;-D Groete / Greetings Elardus Engelbrecht ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
