has anyone thought of any practical use for a wireless server? after all,
its only semi-wireless, since it needs the base station quite close.

can it be used for something clever, or is it just cool?

(i cant come up with a single smart implementation, im afraid. maybe, when
the drivers are ready for true DHCP, the newt can be used for wireless
paging on a WLAN-enabled campus, but this has limited use...)
