To not have the RF feature is insane and to have to work so hard for a work around is just ridicuolous.
but it does have RF, that is what 802.11b is all about. Also from Daniel's review
802.11b Network Extender (available 1st quarter 2003) offers IR routing, power sensing and RS232 control
it will have a base that will work as an extender and possibly a bit more

802.11b is a different RF standard then the one used on the Pro, but it is RF 2.4 GHz to be exact.
