Seattle Wireless TV — July 2003
On this month’s show, Peter and Michael report on the wireless project called “SnowNet” a project where Casey Halverson plans to use mountain tops to connect communities via a 802.11b backbone. We then check out the first link connected to SnowNet. “TacomaNode” located in Tacoma, Wa, it will connect to Seattle via a wireless backbone through SnowNet. Scott Kennedy, the owner of the Drinkmore Caf?, tells us why he has decided to provide free WiFi to his customers while other places charge. And finally we had a chance to try out a new linux embedded product called the “Prismiq MediaPlayer”. Using this device you no longer have to watch your media files on your small computer monitor. Using a wireless card it can hook up to your network anywhere.
