The third thing to keep in mind is that "bleeding edge" doesn't always (and in fact rarely, if ever) correspond to what's out in the real world. OK, so you're peeved because the guy talked about WRT54G and didn't cover Kamikazi.
Something else that one needs to remember is the thing called "lead time". If you were to write a book today about the latest exploit on the net, we still wouldn't see it in the bookstores until after Christmas. Writing a book is a *lot* of job. If you checked their website, and listen to their podcast, you will notice that when they were writing the book the Kamakazi release was still SVN-only and writing anything about such software on something that is created by dead trees is a waste of resources (the OpenWRT team could have changed the whole build system by the time the book went out to the shops). Yes, I may be a fan boy of the show (did even sponsor them with some cool custom laptop skins), but it does not change the fact that print media is a slow moving beast. -- http://michaelboman.org - Security Blog & Wiki _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
