Are networks ready for iPhone?

iPhoneAssociated Press is reporting that Duke University is having significant network trouble as a result of iPhones beginning to show up on campus.

There are already 100-150 of the smart phones on campus and classes don’t start for another few weeks. According to the AP story, iPhones have flooded parts of the campus’ wireless network with access requests, freezing parts of the network.

Apple and Cisco are working with the campus IT department to try to resolve the network congestion issues.

It is not clear if this is something unique to Duke’s network configuration or if this is a first of other incidents to come.
