Was talking with some smart people this week and spent a quick moment on 802.11 (protocol using in SLNK). There are no provisions for QoS in 802.11 and this person suggested that the jury is still out on the right technology for in-home/in-buinsess wireless. Not sure what this means long term for SLNK but if correct it would appear that work will need to be done. FWIW I thought that 802.11 was the convergence point going forward but I'm being re-educated quickly... and at 10M it matters when streaming is involved. Just thought I'd add two cents.... OG
