A few electronics type people have confirmed that the link as planned
wouldn't work, but as far as i know, there are a few people working
on modifying it so it will. Somebody is also (i think) making a line-of-sight
infra-red link (like a TV remote)
What was really a hoax was that the rt-link maker "sold" the things
for 35 dollars a piece. He claimed to have made 50 sets. It turns
out he was scamming people (actually just one, we should thank him :)
