[g1-hackers] AirCrack on G1?

[Mike Brennan]

Very very interesting, thanks for the link and info Satadru.  I've
also been thinking about a simpler tethering solution.  Do you know if
it's possible to use the device as a modem?  With my old blackberry I
used to be able to use it in USB as a serial modem.  I wonder if that
might work with a little code work on the G1.
