Reading the article this is only a partial crack and only applies to WPA1 using TKIP keys, not WPA2 that I think most looking for security would use nowadays. The question is if the same methods used to crack TKIP on WPA1 means there's a chance of cracking protocols running on WPA2 in the future ?

Perhaps we should only run over WiFi links while inside a VPN tunnel ? Of course external hot spots at cafes and the like are the greatest security hole as then often don't have any encryption at all !
