I'm a little doubtful as to whether this was the system referred to, since, as 
to the best of my knowledge, it has only been implemented once.  You can read 
the write-up here: <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/";>http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/</a> and here 
<a  rel="nofollow" href="http://linux.omnipotent.net/article.php?article_id=12239";>http://linux.omnipotent.net/article.php?article_id=12239</a>.

Hope that helps,

Michael

&gt; &gt; &gt; So I'm talking to this guy yesterday and he tells me
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; there's this
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt; wireless technology out there that can be used for
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; networking and he
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt; refers to it as 'wireless lan.'  Says it's not wifi
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; and actually has
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt; been around longer than wifi.  Can't be bluetooth.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; So folks, anyone
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt; know what this magical, mysterious technology is?
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; This guy isn't blowing smoke.  I can't remember the
&gt; &gt; name of it right
&gt; &gt; now, but I do know that 802.11a,b,g isn't the first
&gt;
&gt; kid
&gt;
&gt; &gt; on the block
&gt; &gt; for wireless data.  I'm pretty sure it was proprietary
&gt; &gt; technology only
&gt; &gt; sold by a few companies.  It's dead by now I figure.
