Thanks.

"reachability"? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? I'd love to hear the backstory on that name choice. It has the scent of things like "srcBic", adopted from the arbitrary choices of neckbeards who define OS APIs. Maybe there's an API for iOS called NSReachabilityChanged.

If nothing else it's perhaps the most truly English-like token in the language, steeped as it is in vague ambiguity just like so much in natural languages. ;)

And iOS only?  What do we do for the other 80% of the world?
