- Trent Batson mentions the wireless network with regard to its installation
- on a Pow$erBook. The wireless network has been available for quite a while
- now. One such computer on which it works is the (MS-DOS) HP-95LX Palmtop
- computer. You get an EarthStation about the size of a VHS cassette. The cost
- for the entire package is ~$1,200.00 (excluding the $50.00+ additional
- cellular connection charge and the $0.10 - 0.15 per minute trans/rec charge.
- The HP95LX also allows for local connection to a LAN via infrared. I think
- the Poquet (propeil pocket computer) also supports such.
-
- These are all available today.
