Centre for the Enhancement of Learning and Teaching IT Future Strategy Recognition that students will arrive with PDA and PC Want to connect on campus and at home Connect halls of residences VPN providing H drives Novell 6 provides full access remotely

Centre for the Enhancement of Learning and Teaching IT Strategy - Issues Software licences Various PCs and PDAs Security of access Speed – at present 11 mbs vs 100 mbs

Centre for the Enhancement of Learning and Teaching Bluetooth? Nothing to do with the dentist Technology standard using short-range radio links replacing cables Aim is for one Bluetooth device to connect anywhere to any other in its proximity whatever manufacturer.
