More on the wireless thingamy

It's so cute.



You plug that into the phone line, and into a power outlet. You then plug it into the computer to configure it for five minutes (which essentially consists of telling it your username and password for your ISP), and then you disconnect the computer forever. Clearly this is how everyone is going to connect their laptops to the internet within a year or so. It wouldn't surprise me if these all in one router things come in the box with many laptops before long. And in fact it may well become standard for desktops before long too. I would certainly make setting things up in multiple computer households a lot easier.
