Not only has wireless data access achieved a great deal of market penetration in recent years, but the price of the related hardware has continued to drop, making it even more accessible. Wi-Fi seems to be everywhere; in laptops, desktops, PDAs, cell phones and routers, and there is such a large amount of wireless networks in many urban areas that complete overcrowding of the public wireless radio spectrum in use can occur.
