Broadband net goes stratospheric. Researchers have successfully tested a system using a high altitude balloon to offer wireless broadband. [BBC News | Science/Nature | UK Edition] This mean that it will be possible to deploy boradband access in the wake of natural disaster like eathquakes (on a less than real windy day - hurricane situations would have to wait a little  for calm weather).  On a more festive note it will be possible with this tehcnology to support large outdoor gatherings like festivals, peace celebrations, and sporting events.  The real benefactors may well be refugee camps and other emergency settlements where good communication and coordination are critical. -- BL
