Designed specifically to be asthetically pleasing, the new Nokia
A036 Access Point has been
released. More interesting is that Nokia claims the AP can be remotely
software-upgraded to the 802.1x, 802.11i/TKIP, and 802.11f IEEE
standards from the network management center as standards become
finalized.

They also claim that due to its new design, it will reduce rollout costs
by 25% because of its integrated antennas, quick mounting mechanisms,
and power-over-Ethernet (PoE) support.

    I love that they note the cover can be “painted to match the surrounding decor.” You know you’ve moved out of the “early adopter” phase when your technology coincides with your interior decorator.
