Maverick Systems' First Portable Gateway, Super Router

From Gizmodo -

Japan-based Maverick Systems has just announced their development of the world's first portable wireless internet gateway.

A USB card/device, the gateway functions much like a wireless router. But it can support up to 32 simultaneous connections, meaning that pending your base computer finding a proper bandwidth connection, it could supply a 32-person hotspot in a quasi-mobile operation. Or better yet, using a WiFi hotspot, you could extend said hotspot to your friends sitting at a cheaper cafe across the street.
