One of the first thoughts I had about melbwireless was the concept of 
open circuit security cameras.  sort of like a wireless and very literal 
version of neighbourhood watch.  Ofcourse careful placement and 
awareness of camera location would be an issue as I am sure we don't 
want to become a big brother clone (besides, web cam sites abound on the 
net, so that is not what I intend).

I'd just like to throw a few ideas out there re what use is melbourne 
wireless

Remote control house. login to your home (encrypted channel - eg. ssh) 
from work and check on the cats.
data transfer your work file home.
play your home stereo at work(!)
netphone over wireless.

also I noticed on the brisbane site mention of apana as ISP for 
wireless? any thoughts?
