Good article. I see little has changed.
Utilities building "smart grid" using relatives of these technologies are figuring out the same thing, specially the ones that built in crowded "unlicensed" 900MHZ and 2.4ghz ranges that are competing with a lot of other signal sources as background noise.
I'd -STILL- like to build a downtown area private mesh network, for fun. Just don't have the time, or neighbors with similar interests.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
