The Mark 2 has an ethernet plug, to which you could connect a wireless ethernet system if you were so inclined. However, as much as folks have talked about this recently, it's very easy for me (and cheaper) to just yank the thing out of the dash and bring it inside, so I don't see a lot of benefit to doing it that way. ___________ Tony Fabris _________________________ Tony Fabris

You'd have to take the dash apart to get it out again... Not a pretty sight... Save the whales. Feed the hungry.

Not really.. you could just leave the ethernet cord w/ an extra foot or two of slack behind the empeg - that way when you pull it out, you just disconnect it.. -mark ...proud to have owned one of the first Mark I units _________________________ http://mvgals.net - clublife, revisited.
