Abstract

Internet on cell phones is all about connecting to things that are a world apart wirelessly. Interestingly enough, frequently you may wish that you could somehow connect to things (devices, machines, or even people) that are right next to you. For example, you may be at a business associate’s office, next to a printer that you wish you could use to print an urgent e-mail you’ve just received; or you may have walked past your dream house, which happens to be up for sale, and you want more information on it right away. While the Internet may help in some situations, it would be wonderful if there were a painless—and ideally airtime free—way for connecting to things that are next to you.
