FWIW, I find this suggestion very appealing. I think some folks use
'wireless sensor nodes' as shorthand for low-power highly-programmable
radios but there are likely other folks who find the sensing
capabilities of greater interest and of course those those who are
interested in working with both aspects concurrently.
