"The Mosul-based Styker Brigade will, according to Yahoo! news, be able to control individual devices from a laptop via a WLAN set-up."

I wonder what type of security features will be implemented on this setup...surely an inquisitive journalist with a wifi-enabled laptop won't be able to set off these devices. "gives a new edge to the phrase 'wardriving'"...isn't that the truth...

Or how about this related article on the GIG or Global Information Grid. Seems interesting.
