Harnessing The Power Of Wireless Devices

The Boston Globe has discovered mesh networking (and, specifically, the company named Mesh Networks). Nothing particularly new in the article, but a good basic explanation of what mesh networks are, and why they're useful. The article mostly brushes over the potential problems with mesh networks, but the article is mostly meant to highlight the company, so that's understandable. The article also points out that the company has decided to initially target police and fire departments, rather than going to a broader consumer focus. This probably makes sense right now, though it will be interesting to see how the technology is developed over time.
