Andy, Wi-Fi, is wireless internet.... in the Mac world it is Airport. And there are all sorts of wireless products appearing, and wireless stations or "hotspots" being put up every day around the world.
I read yesterday that the Australian phone company and some Asian companies are getting together to install 200,000 hotspots jointly.
I see little advantages at this stage when compared to the hard wired points already at airports, because of issues such as security, and range.
Has the technology changed enough to address these issues and make Wi-Fi more than just another gimmik (for want of a better word), is my question.
