    I agree with what murphe777 points out. This idea is brilliant, but it may be in such contrast to the profit-based views of the carriers, that shy of a government mandate, I seriously doubt that it will ever be a standard feature. Thankfully, most android phones are open, and if the concept remain as software, it may be difficult to block it.

    in an emergency where communications have broken down: just drop 100's or 1000's of android smartphones from a plane. ?????? It would make much more sense to drop a bunch of rugged oldfashioned walkie-talkies, they're small nowadays (benefiting from new battery technology), cheap and reliable, with a MUCH better range than WiFi. Some newer ones like the Trisquare ones are digital so the signal can be encrypted even.

    I heard Paul Gardner-Stephen speaking about this in an interview with Salim Fadhley on the Pod Delusion podcast #70, 4 Feb 2011. Very interesting technology. I hope the Serval project is a big success.
