I don't know, maybe more like comparing oranges and tangerines. There
are certainly applications where you could use both, but in most cases,
if you can go gigabit, why would you consider wireless? If it's too
difficult to get the wire from A to B, then it's likely you go with
wireless.
I would generally try a lot harder to get the wire from A to B if I was
working gigabit verses 100mb though. ;)
