Also, this weekend I was at my girlfriend's house who has Comcast cable and
her Motorola 'Net Surfer' cable modem has connections for BOTH ethernet and
USB. Now that is a good idea for the Air Bridge Indoor don't you think?

True. Depends on price, though - lots of motherboards have an integrated ethernet port these days, so the usb option doesn't necessarily save you (or the client) an ethernet card.

Another cool product (don't you think) would be an integrated A/P, Switch,
Router (just like the ones we use now from Linksys, D-Link and NetGear) but
where the WAN port had the client radio built in. So, take an AirBridge
Indoor and merge it with, say a NetGear A/P, Router. Go ahead, shoot holes
in this. Is this too much in one box?

It makes sense for private customers, saves you a broadband router if the customer wants to connect more than one PC. DSL and cable modems with integrated broadband router have been in the market for a while now.

Still, some of us need transparent bridges.
