If that hypothesis is true, I'm surprised I haven't seen it in all
the analysis I've done with it. But I don't have any Cisco AP's to
play with either.

Since neither Apple, Cisco nor Duke seems willing to say exactly
what the
problem was or what they fixed; not very surprising; it was
probably a
"Duh" problem unique to Duke's network.
Nope. My understanding is that it's an ARP storm, or something
similar,
when the iPhone roams onto a new 802.11 hotspot. Apple hasn't
issued a
fix yet, so Cisco had to do an emergency patch for some of their
larger
customers. This is just my understanding based on one conversation
about
it. I'd feel like an idiot saying "don't quote me" on NANOG,
but... I
don't have any special knowledge about it, nor personal experience
of it,
so...
