Wireless LANs have been around for some time, but only recently have the speeds been improving.
Most setups use RF frequencies in the 2GHz+ range, so clarity and range issues are pretty good.
My school actually has a wireless LAN setup in our research library. Patrons can check out a client-side PCMCIA card from the front desk, and then have Internet access for their laptop while they work in the library. Pretty slick.
Although they obviously want you to buy something, this company's description is nonetheless pretty good (and thorough).
