I was working at a festival last year (50k visitors, 2k staff) and phone service was down (surprise!) for all but one network. With mesh networking you could make calls within the mesh easily, and with enough endpoints, outside the mesh as well. AFAIK you can do mesh-like networks with BT as well (bridget piconets), but I think you'll get hit with the limited range. regards, Koen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iD8DBQFFr79CMkyGM64RGpERAp6eAJ9vqn09Gqz6hVdHK2MO30RklT+sTQCgufte wjSpljJw7rDCqFXy56ujqlE= =aPLY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community Ye
