Wi-Fi with LED lights
 
  Is there any way to program the Natami's lights for Wifi access?

I can't get the link to work but engineers put a laptop under a lamp and got 2 MBs internet access from Leds using a lamp.

People have already been sending radio transmissions using lasers and photoresistors.  By modulating a blue led, you can get your table lamp to blink (modulate) 200 times a second which wouldn't be visible to the naked eye.  You wouldn't have to buy a router and this would save money on parts: no network cable, no wireless card and online video would still be smooth playing.  The future will have energy saving technology and led lights can be the commander of all household appliances.

The important thing is, is it transmitting as much power as a normal Wi-Fi card? I don't think it'd be a good idea if it conks out when I move away.
 
  Regardless, I think this is a bit beyond the natami project itself. Cool idea though.

The Amiga 500, 600 and 2000 had LEDs on the case so putting them to use or adding an extra one or even IR receivers could open up more possibilities with what you can do with it.

I understand that everyone will say their decision has to do with cost or that it wouldn't be used by everyone but this or even bluetooth capability would open up doors for the Natami.

  I knew my fascination and love in LED is not an insanity from my part!!! THAT MEANS MORE LED!! LED! LED! LED! LED! LED! LED! I want my NatAmi case to have so many LED on it, it could shine an entire room heheh and having one blink red and another blue and another purple, hehehehhe!!! * wipes the droll from my face *

  I wonder if there is away they can have the monitor in LED instead of LCD, OLED and so on....just one giant red LED, green LED and blue LED....hmmmmm
