Canon's Canobeam DT-130: get your wireless laser Internet on

You gotta make sure you don't accidentally stand in front of it (seriously) or stare directly at it, but Canon's got a new line of optical transceiver called the Canobeam DT-130 which uses lasers to beam data through the air at up to a gigabit per second at distances of up to three-quarters of a mile (two earlier versions peaked at 256 Mbps). You wouldn't exactly want to set this up at home, but if you had to, say, establish an Internet connection across a giant chasm or something, this might do the trick.

UPDATE

: Canon would like us to let you know that staring directly into the Canobeam DT-130 will not result in your being blinded.
