Is data transmission with ultra sound practical? You can get 10Mhz ultra sound
in water, and it travels very fast. I wonder if connecting PC's with garden
hoses would be cheaper than ethernet cable, no electrical noise but stepping
on the hose could cause problems ;)

Does any one have a list of prices and speeds of available risc chips?
