Cable length? (Score 1)

Isn't FireWire cable limited to 15 feet between power sources? Might have to do all the devices in the same room if this is still true, provided you didn't want repeaters. Repeaters could add up though and make this a less effective option.

But hey, at least my friend and I can LAN our iBooks for some good ole MOH:AA or Civ 3 on a plane flight to England! :-)
