802.11s portals

[MBurns]

List: correct me if I am wrong.

As far as I know, the best first step is an Xbox 360 Wireless Adapter [1].
They use the same Marvell chip that the OLPC uses, and it would stand to
reason that a Linux+Marvell setup for the OLPC would work reasonably well in
a generic Linux desktop machine with an Xbox adapter dongle. Any progress to
this in would be very interesting.

Any other ideas?
