Tech Conference WiFi Under Strain, Please Turn Off Your Devices [blogs.reuters.com]

The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas is all about technology, and pack journalists and tech experts all over the world say that wireless will be the next big boom. So why are various companies at this year’s CES begging and in some cases instructing people not to use their wireless devices or their Wi-Fi connections?

Ironic, eh!

I know this sounds crazy, but rumor has it that WiFi routers can be set to have a password where only certain people can log into it! If that were true, this problem would be solved! But that's just crazy talk.
