If it ever comes out of vapourware it's a possibility. (and no, his public demo and video doesn't count as a real product)

At the end of the day however there aren't mobile bandwidth issues in NZ - we've already got world class mobile networks vastly superior to countries like the US. Our networks also have vastly more spectrum than networks in many other countries which opens up plenty of possibilities for bonding.

Looks cool but I don't really understand.

The way I read it is they broadcast on all channels at once but only a single device uses a channel. Surely noise floor is still the major issue.

The access points (or whatever they are) look awesome though!
