statement.
Again, you are taking everything I said too literally THATS closed minded.
I never said "wireless works perfectly for everyone", I said it COULD work in
the right environment. Nobody actually asked the person who was trying to
use wireless if they lived in a highly populated area. You mention the
difference between the US and UK but neglect it yourself. For all you know
they could live as far away from other people as the broadband in the area
permits - it could be in the middle of nowhere and wireless would perform
perfectly. So think about that before calling ME closed minded.
I keep an open mind at all times, its you who is assuming I am being rigid in
my comments. Its not my fault if you are making assumptions about what I am
saying that are unfounded.
Alex.
