Hawking takes 802.11n into the mini-space age

Just in case you’re still in the dark ages and are running your WiFi on 802.11b or some such nonsense from 2001, you might consider throwing down a little scratch ($110) to get your N on.

Just pop down to your favorite electronics store and say that you want the new Hawking HWDN1A Hi-Gain USB Wireless-300N Adapter. They’ll know exactly what you mean—provided you don’t trip up over all those letters and such provided by Creative Naming Corp.

Plus, when you bust this out in a public place, you can tell people that you’re looking for aliens. Really tiny aliens.
