Comments on: Peer to Peer, Parallel Networking for Your iPhone http://www.victusspiritus.com/2009/07/14/peer-to-peer-parallel-networking-for-your-iphone/ a blog by Mark Essel on web technology, startups and design philosophy Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:38:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: hearing aid http://www.victusspiritus.com/2009/07/14/peer-to-peer-parallel-networking-for-your-iphone/comment-page-1/#comment-9647 hearing aid Fri, 25 Mar 2011 03:34:00 +0000 http://www.victusspiritus.com/?p=1064#comment-9647 I appreciate your post. I also wrote that SMS advertising provides a cost effective method of targeting promotions to specific customer profiles. You might want to remind customers of specific events or promotions, but for whatever reasons, SMS allows you to pass information directly to the right customer at very affordable prices and fast delivery. <a href="http://www.hearingaidindia.com/" title="Hearing Aid" rel="nofollow">Hearing Aid</a> I appreciate your post.

This idea is definitely an ad-hoc network variant.

Maybe it's too hard for a simple app to get to the core of the networking ability of the device? But when I'm out of wifi range but within 3G I can imagine many cases where distributed/decentralized 3G parallel transmissions would be faster than single node transmission/reception.

Certainly in the case where many phones aren't actively being utilized (free bandwidth), but I'm inclined to believe that even fully burdened networks you still have less collisions/delays when using many connections in parallel.

Will it be easy, probably not. That's why no one has already done it. Is it practical is what I'm interested in.

Does the iphone even support adhoc peer-to-peer yet outside of a router based wifi network?<br><br>The current solutions are pretty good, and the network operators get a lot of money by using a centralized system. But if the devices made it easy to do adhoc connections, im sure developers would find novel uses for mesh networking.
