WiFi hotspot and internet in your backpack, or if someone has too much free time
On the side of Popular Science, they successfully packed a complete WiFi hotspot with internet into a backpack.
Devices with WiFi are spreading: PDAs, smartphones, Sony’s PlayStation Portable, and even Kodak EasyShare-One digital cameras have this technology. There is only one problem: all it takes is a hotspot that connects these machines. Although there are more and more in our small country - and let's not talk about San Francisco, where one goes out on the street and literally finds 8 WiFi networks at once - but what to do if we are in a place where this is not available el? Let's carry one in our backpack, which also provides an internet connection!
