Just tested La fonera this week end (the new wifi device from fon.com).

Easy installation, sleek design, two wifi signals (one personal and one FON AP), good intensity.

The cool thing is that it small enough to bring it with you.

want to be part of the biggest wifi network for only 5€/$ and own your own "social" wifi router.

watch this fun video to see how fon works :

(disclosure: FON's founder & CEO is an investor in my company).

or 4 Euros if you are based in Europe. (+vat + logistic charge around 10 Euros the box). 

Only for hardware it is already a big deal but the offer include also access to a world wide wifi network in development  worth taking a look ;-)

Wimax is raising once again expectation, after Intel Chip announcement, Nokia is announcing its support to Wimax for Mobile together with Intel. Meshed network represent as of today the only real possibilities of wireless IP before full wimax availability. Such implementation requires a lot of investment to resolve the economic equation (#of users, range, frequency, costs, compatibility, and protocol intelligence), but meshed network can compete with DSL broadband and even mobile operator (mobile over wifi through VoIP). The transition with wimax backhaul and then end user is the current only perspective. Nokia is also targeting at traditional mobile operator to allow 3G antennas working with wimax backhaul and in the future with wimax handset.
