Fair enough, my point was just that we are probably now on the cusp on
the point where wireless connections are reliable enough.


But are they fast enough?

I can confortably store a large file on my home server and edit it from
a PC without copying it to the local hard disk, using a 1gb connection
that is independent of the other connections going on around the house.
Wireless on the other hand, has multiple devices all on the same channel
and competing for bandwidth, plus many bands are in use by neighbours.

You may be right, my wireless bandwidth is only about two times what the
disks in the server and PC can deliver.
