1. An ultra-thin client network system, comprising:
- a processing center, including;
a processor;
a data bus in data communication with the processor;
a concurrency device, operatively coupled to the data bus;
a wireless data connection, operatively coupled to the concurrency device; and
a plurality of ultra-thin clients, each further comprising a communication device including a wireless data connection, whereby each of the ultra-thin clients can be in data communication with the concurrency device, and can be located in relation to the processing center without cabling, and can share in a processing capability of the processing center.

29. A method of providing an ultra-thin client network, comprising the steps of:
-
providing a processing center including a processor and a system bus;
providing for connecting a concurrency device to the system bus to enable connection of multiple ultra-thin clients to the processor;
providing for connection of the multiple ultra-thin clients to the processing center through the concurrency device;
providing a wireless connection configured to enable data communication between the concurrency device and the multiple ultra-thin clients; and
configuring the concurrency device and the wireless connection so that the multiple ultra-thin clients can share the processor from remote locations without cabling via the concurrency device and the wireless connection. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
