Network sentrick warfare in Iraq

[GeroW4lll]

Here's a Popular science article that everyone should find interesting here.

USMC vehicles are outfitted with hightech networked systems to help them comunicate and respond faster. The network is not perfect since all the gadgets didn't make it to the front line. Making the hightech a bit of a liability.

At the same time Iraqis or "Insurgents" are constructing their own networks using PAYG cellphones and hotmail/freemail/Yahoo mail accounts.
