Get More Out of Wi-Fi!

Dan Hanttula tells about some low-cost and no-cost solutions to become a Wi-Fi power user. He writes in his article, "If you have a Wi-Fi enabled Pocket PC and read last issue's "Get More" article, you probably realized that most of the Bluetooth applications I described would work over a Wi-Fi network as well. Like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi is a short range, high-bandwidth wireless solution developed to connect computers without cables. But because it's faster than Bluetooth and has a greater range, there's a lot more you can do with it. Whether you use Wi-Fi at home, at work, or at wireless "hotspots" on-the-go, it's easy to become a "power user" with the applications I'll describe. All these solutions require a wireless network and a Wi-Fi enabled Pocket PC."
