Hey guys...If my friend and I both have AirPort equipped powerbook G4's, is there anyway to set up a wreless LAN bewteen us without a router (other than bluetooth)? It seems plausible. If the nintendo DS can communicate over 802.11, why not to macs??

It is possible, I don't know how to do it exactly on a mac because I don't have an airport card in my mac mini, but look for a setting for an "Ad-hoc" network.
