This is an interesting concept. The issue is educating the customer. Most don't know they must have this, or it becomes too cumbersome to use the devices. I do believe Symantec is trying with their new router, but currently, it looks too walled garden to be useful or practical. Finally working in this area, there is a huge challenge of nomadic devices...ie work PC used at home then back to work or Tablet goes home to college/coffee-house...
