Video on WLAN is also a great idea, 1503 created their own personal video wireless network and broadcasted it for the newton division. It worked out amazingly, isn't there a way Sundian can be integrated with a live video feed?

It would take a heck of a lot of server and AP power to be able to serve video on demand to that many laptops. I'm guessing several hundred would be logged on at a time, and....

Ok, for instance, lets say there are 300 laptops online.

With timeslice issues you can usually fit about 20 laptops/radio, so lets be optimistic and say our AP has a diversity antenna (2 radios). So that brings us to 40 laptops/AP. So, being optimistic, you'd need eight access points. Keep in mind, this would be pretty low bitrate video and would have a slow framerate. Plus, I'm being optimistic with the 20 laptops/radio. On the server end, I don't know how much hardware you would need.


BUT I'd really really like it if someone was willing to spend the time+money+effort to make this happen, it'd be awesome!
