Agreed. I was using the shortcut "wireless" term which is used in the promo video to mean the things you are saying more explicitly. Apple used the term for marketing purpose, and I was using it to mean "on the go." Being on the go pretty much requires being wireless, even down to not using a mouse attached to your laptop. -- Andrei Herasimchuk Principal, Involution Studios innovating the digital world e.
