I don't want to discourage the attempt to use a faster line; I just want
to make sure it won't cause any problems with show management. I will
raise the issue specifically with them. In some ways I don't think they
can object -- after all, they can't/don't regulate cellphone use on the
show floor. But we'll see...
I'm assuming, of course, that you have easy access to an ISP at the other
end of the wireless link willing to offer that bandwidth.
