WPS: you want it but you'll have to wait
WPS stands for "Wi-Fi Protected Setup", and it's a standard for simplifying the unnecessary hassles of setting up a wireless network with security. Instead of typing ridiculous long numbers or passwords into each device, they'll figure out on their own who they're supposed to talk to, and pass the long numbers around by themselves like computers are supposed to do.
WPS devices are due out next month, later than expected, according to Glenn Fleishman's wonderful newsletter about all things Wi-Fi.
It's worth waiting for.
