Wireless data network finally closes up shop for good. This piece of news makes me very nostalgic for my graduate school days a decade ago when I got the student rate and leased a black plastic brick with an antenna, which I velcro'd to my Apple Powerbook 500 (I think?) laptop. I could check my email anywhere in the Bay Area, whether in class, in a cafe, or in a car in downtown Santa Cruz (parked, of course.) The data transfer rates were laughable by today's standards -- heck, everything was, though; I was only on Mac OS 8 at best.
