Yep. I'd originally boosted it to 58mW, and dropped down to 46. Maybe 
I'll try something in the 30's. The curious thing is that the eMac in 
the other room wasn't dropping. Oh. It's in the other room. Ahhhhhhh.

Cool, thanks!

Well, it's true. I know it from personal and professional experience. 
Unfortunately I'm stuck downtown all day, so I can't try it 'till I get 
home.

Which reminds me... I *LOVE* my new Sony Ericsson T68i and using it as 
a GPRS device for my powerbook kicks all kinds of butt. I was kicked 
out of the closet this morning that my client had assigned as 
workspace, but I can't go home since I have a meeting at 4:00 pm. So 
I'm working in the cafe in the building using my $20/month unlimited 
data plan from T-Mobile. Woo!
