Hi,

What are people envisioning to be the "practical and 
sellable" applications of ad hoc networks (e.g. something more
foreseeable than a wireless toaster oven)?  Right now, ad hoc networks
exist only for very limited applications, primarily in the military
arena.  Can someone discuss and/or direct me to some useful websites
discussing the big picture, the vision of ad hoc networks as a wireless
alternative for the ordinary consumer?

Thanks a lot!
