Mobile computing and wireless networks are here to stay, judging by IBM's initiative to
provide the industry's first all-wireless line of products and services. To this end, as
of June 22, ThinkPad laptops will include built-in wireless capabilities. In addition to
being able to connect over a modem or Ethernet, the new ThinkPad A22m models can connect
to a wireless 802.11b LAN via an antenna built into their screens.

your office, see our Savvy Shopper article on
