No, bandwidth is not infinite, but those who choose can put limits on what they make available. Traffic shaping and QOS flags are ways around worrying about whether or not wireless users are hogging your network. I have a wireless node at home, even though I have no wireless devices I use at home - I put my laptop on ethernet since 100Mbps far exceeds anything wireless can do. I run all the wireless access through a proxy and limit what types of service are available. If enough people 'get it', we can all share bandwidth and have constant wireless access as soon as you walk out the front door.
