The KR1 product was announced ages ago and there is still no indication of a firm shipping date. "Soon" is beginning to sound like "never". Giddy excitement has been replaced by the all too common sense of being fed yet another line by marketing teams.
My Kyocera KP650 is working reasonably well with my PC (with an added PCMCIA slot) with good 300-700kbps downloads and turtle speed 30kbps uploads. I get several drop outs around 1-3pm when the sun is shining staright into my office. Go figure. If I could have had DSL in my building, I would have moved to DSL already and not ther other way around.
On the other than it would be great to be able to have internet access without having to keep plugging the PC Card in and out to swap between the PC and the laptop. Surely the connecting pins have a limited life and so does my aching back.
Roll on the KR1 ... then again my brain tends to be too small to successfully set up routers too ... I want my mommy.
