Can you create ad-hoc networks on a (XO-1) msh0 device? For me, trying  
it on the left grey circle just pulses for a while with a palette  
title "Gary2's network, Connecting...", and then goes back to grey  
with a blank palette title. Trying with the right grey circle  
correctly creates "Gary2's network".

One other quick question. Once you have created an ah-hoc network, the  
"Create new wireless network" palette entry is still displayed. It  
seems a redundant control, is it still necessary to show?
