Petri,
(1)
think we agree with each other in general (and the wireless-USB/
FireWire was in my throat). a simple layered design is the key.
Ethernet is a good point, and it's becoming a WAN standard now.
what I mean is that wired or wireless, the lower physical and
data-link layers are the main concern here that make difference.
(2)
music/video again, what if people wear wireless headphones or
small LCDs for play back from a device in the pocket, or using
a PDA to access data on HDDs in the bag. these will involve
heavy radio traffic, and will have interference problems like
too small pico-cells.
was Bluetooth designed for this?
(3)
>Without cables the students will be more likely to steal the keyboards and
>mice.
it's the professor who shouldn't be given a wireless mouse,
that he may use to throw at me when I fall asleep.
cheers,
Ken
ps. Benjamin, not everything has to be in the same way,
wired/or wireless ... wireless Georgia home boy?
