WiFi-Enabled TV Broadcasting
Believe it or not, I literally mean "broadcasting" - these guys utilized public Wi-Fi networks in NYC to set up experimental wireless broadcast stations capable of doing cable-quality programming. I can't wait for the day when we can all broadcast ourselves on TV using wireless-enabled PDAs... 
"The goal of the project is to establish procedure and criteria for broadcasting to the cable or satellite TV network from remote locations, using a laptop, camera and any type of available broadband Internet connection - preferably WiFi.
The motivation for such an exercise is the attempt to break away from classical TV production requiring hundreds of thousands of dollars in specialized infrastructure and enable immediate and on-the-fly transmission from remote locations to the TV network, ultimately leading toward creative production of programming from within a P2P network."

Ladies and Gentlement, the revolution will be televised.
The revolution will not go better with Coke.
The revolution will not fight the germs that cause bad breath.
The revolution WILL put you in the driver's seat.
-(with apology to Gill scot Heron)

Saw from another forum... If anyone's looking for a newly unemployed actor (cheap scale):

Bad break for him, but fortunately:
"...Judge Ellen [Feiss] adjourned the case for one year and said the charges could be dismissed..."
