Moving from wifi to wireless data. Cell phones switch from one cell to another seamlessly (in theory). Large scale wifi networks do this as well. Transferring from a home wifi to a wireless data connection shouldn't be a big deal, nor should transferring from wired to wireless. Seamless handover is a technical problem not a justification for wireless last mile. -- Kim Holburn IT Network & Security Consultant T: +61 2 61402408 M: +61 404072753 mailto:[email protected] aim://kimholburn skype://kholburn - PGP Public Key on request _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
