The Wireless Future of Library Computing

[Blake Carver]

Hi All,
We have this Column on The Wireless Future of Library Computing running at 
LISNews, by Karl Bridges.

He says we are at the beginning of a major shift in the library computing 
paradigm, having already witnessed the movement from paper-based systems to 
mainframe computing and personal computing based on ever more sophisticated 
and powerful personal computers.
Now we have begun to see the development of the use of portable laptop 
computing - first through the use of hard wired ports and, more recently, 
the use of wireless connectivity. The question then becomes whether the 
laptop becomes the final destination on this technological road.
He says the answer, it seems, is no.
