In this chapter, the Infopad project has a long term goal of providing a system solution to the problem of accessing information from high bandwidth networks in a portable wireless manner. Optimisations are being made at all levels, extending from the circuit design in the portable units, through to the protocols on the high speed backbone networks. We are finding that significant advantages can be gained from this unified approach, which could not be achieved by independent efforts at the various network levels. The next generation of Infopad will support multiple users, cells and applications.
