Forget the hoopla on wireless until security and privacy are assured. You flaunt a technology that cannot work at a resonable cost within the HIPAA regulations...yet. It takes more than security geeks to figure this out. Healthcare is not the only place that needs the horse before the cart.

What would it cost for the i-Burst wireless technology broadband access to develop a security standard worthy to market and keep the criminals out?

Staying in line with the HIPAA, for example.

I advise EVERYONE who asks about wireless LANS of the security problems and pitfalls.

Unless there is an over-riding installation issue for a wired LAN, I always default to the wired LAN.

Wireless LANS can be secured. However, they require constant vigilance and monitoring.
