We have an app with a UISwitch that we show/hide depending on if there
is a WiFi network available or not. Since its a simple delegate call,
it makes it easy.

On the iPhone, what's the point of the network Reachability APIs,
when one can simply open a network socket (or input/output stream)
and observe the EOF notices from the socket to determine network
availability & reachability? In other words, if a network
connection has to be made in the first place, why not just attempt
the network connection via the socket/stream and see if that is
successful, and then also watch for EOF (-1) return values from the
stream to determine when the network is down?
