That won't interfere with the 802.11g network? I specified 802.11g in order
to avoid interference by using the 802.11g network itself, with the added
advantages of (a) not needing any extra hardware on the laptop PC and (b) no
audio degradation (as in the case of FM modulation or digital with extra D-A
and A-D conversions). Thanks to "nospam" I'll probably use an Apple Airport
Express (slick product) with iTunes (slick software), which costs the same or
less.
