I used to have problems with the WiFi to my wife's laptop slowing greatly if we were heating anything in the kitchen microwave. I can't conceive of using something that fragile in a concert environment.I'll have to think that there are lots of factors; we used to have an early 1980's microwave, huge and powerful, about six feet away from our WAP and there was never a problem. Maybe the laptop's chipset was sensitive in unusual ways, or something. And I have to agree, 2.4GHz wifi is dangerous right now...but not really with directional antennas, banks are still using 2.4GHz for ATMs across quite a lot of space outdoors, with directionals. And there's always 5GHz...IR...UV...visible...:-) The motivation for me is simple. I have worn out too many USB ports to be happy about it!!! I have thought of trying to throw USB over three 1/4" phone jack cables (using the extremely durable traditional Switchcraft hardware), but have thought that I would probably run into impedance, isolation, or something else hidden in USB. I have also spent quite a lot of time looking for adapter combos which would let me use microUSB for the common detachments, but it seems that the parts builders just haven't had me in mind. --
