Nice Report on Dartmouth Wireless Network

In the next issue of VON Magazine, my column includes details about Dartmouth, where they've done away with long distance billing, instituted universal WiFi, and they're phasing in untethered VoIP. But Ventureblog scooped me! Ventureblog's great set of observations include: residences use 5x the bandwidth of academic locations, location-based services are emerging (such as automatically printing on the printer you're closest to), and they're already running out of bandwidth (so they're adding more access points and implementing load balancing).

I'm not including a link to VON Magazine because the site is embarrassingly naked. The only thing worth doing there is subscribing to the paper version, anyhow.
