It's happening. 802.11=WLAN=WiFi=> the reason wireless will further explode. Same with music due to Napster, but more on that some other time. People in cautious economic moods (which some people are in perpetually), which is is just about everybody these days, will always display a "Show Me" mentality. Totally logical and rational given that so many were burned by bogus business plans that were bound to fail eventually, and fantastic business plans that never have been provided with time/money to succeed. Fires still smoldering everywhere. Now WLAN is mushrooming to every office and family room at the same time. Chip designers (like Intel with Banius and TI with ProjectConnect) to Laptop manufacturers. This wireless frenzy with WiFi will SHOW users, for very low cost, the power of wireless. It's not the dark side, it's the future. With cheap, fast wireless access in "hot spots" the demand to make every spot a hot spot will increase...and...1XRTT networks and 1XEVDO/DV networks will be in demand...and people will beging buying that stuff again..and...telecom/wireless recovery....right? Oh, the bike photo. Friday's I do a two-hill ride up Torrey Pines grade and around La Jolla.
