"Infinite" number of channels on same frequency

"Bo Thide of the Swedish Institute of Space Physics and a team in Italy have finally proven that it’s possible to simultaneously transmit multiple radio channels over exactly the same wireless frequency. In theory, according to Thide, we could potentially transmit an “infinite number” of TV, radio, WiFi, and cellular channels at the same time over the same frequency, blasting apart our highly congested wireless spectrum"

Ender's Game was such a good book. So good.

Looking forward to the movie. They got the kid from Hugo to play the title character, which is excellent casting (Asa Butterfield). Could be another Twilight / Hunger Games phenomena.

They definitely got a lotta frequencies in Ender's Game. Communications is a key issue in the books; Orson Scott Card was talking about email in 1980, which was pretty early on.

My only worry is that the book wont translate well to the big screen. I hope they do it justice.

I agree. And the dramatic twist in the ending (which is somewhat reminiscent of a now-forgotten 1982 film, The Last Starfighter), is gonna be hard to conceal. But I suspect the huge success of the teen sci-fi film Hunger Games could be a big factor in getting the public to see it.
