Fuss Over Wireless

Whoever said that the wireless revolution is just starting, is absolutely correct, although he forgot to add that it is just starting to lose its appeal to the computer addicted public. In spite of the reports that wireless Internet is making waves in the mainstream of multimedia, I, for one, believe that it is not yet time for us to indulge on surfing the web wireless-ly. Like the rumor about high definition television, the wireless web evolution is not as fact-based as we'd think it was. Maybe, I've mentioned this on my past entries and like me, you're getting sick and tired of this issue, so once and for all, after this entry I promise not to write about the flaws of the cordless web; as long as the media and device makers or computer software developers will stop on deceiving people to indulge into the wireless hype.

Like blog entries, wireless web needs to undergo a lot of thinking, editing and revising before showing to the gullible masses. I'm not against the media, but I'm against their character of spoon feeding consumers with nonsense reports about wireless products. I tried checking my e-mail for new messages using my HP iPAQ, and that's exactly the only thing that I can do to my e-mail, check it. Reading it would be like reading e-mails using your mobile phone due to the sluggish access. The irritating slow and almost no connection won't allow me to read my mails; before I thought I've got a problem with the device itself, but then all my frustrations boil down to the inability and phoniness of the so-called WiFi.

I really think we have to wait for the real wireless evolution to come to our doorsteps, but I hope that we won't be waiting for the grass to grow and for Brandon Routh to play Lex Luthor instead of the man of steel. Anyway, as for cafes with WiFi hotspots, I think that is the only place where wireless web has an acceptable speed. This fuss over wireless is irritating me; I think I need a cup of espresso to stab the stress.
