Well, I can obviously see that, but I definately won't be getting wireless
LAN for a little while longer yet. I have 100MB wired ethernet going to
every room currently, and already have internet access in most of the rooms
that I need it in (bar the master bedroom). Plus it will only be
semi-permanent (velcro maybe?). But at least as long as I am restricted to
a
wired connection, I probably won't be moving it around too much - probably
really only use it in 3 rooms initially.

You don't know my other half! ;-) - ANY HA purchase is difficult when she
want a new £10K kitchen!
