Wi-Fi Surpasses Ethernet In Home

Networking Pipeline snapshot of interesting survey:

"More households now use Wi-Fi networking than Ethernet, a trend that will lead to an explosion of new applications, according to a survey released this week by Parks Associates.

'This is truly a watershed finding,' John Barrett, director of research at Parks Associates, said in a statement. 'Establishing a solid base of wireless home networks is crucial for the adoption of next-generation services. Many applications such as home control, home security, or even multimedia distribution are impractical with an Ethernet-only network.'"
