Ever notice how your wireless NIC sucks down the juice? I've found it particular;ly interesting to note that my Cisco 350 drains my battery faster than when I swap in my wife's 340. Her ThinkPad A22m runs for well over an hour and a half with the 340, while I'm lucky to get much over an hour (1:10?) with my T20 running the 350. Looks like Intel has stepped up to the plate with their Centrino wireless offerings: http://www.intel.com/network/connectivity/products/platform/index.htm From the looks of it, these are all integrated component solutions, but it may open an avenue for better power management of 802.11x peripherals. -- Lewis --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA Rosenthal & Rosenthal : Accountants / Network Consultants New York / Northern Virginia : www.2rosenthals.com Novell Users International : www.whytheylie.com OS/2's new face is eComStation : www.ecomstation.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- This OS/2 system (Apollo) uptime is 0 days 00:47 hours and 14 seconds =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to steward@2rosenthals.com with the command "unsubscribe os2-wireless_users" in the body (omit the quotes).
