But what may be the most significant high-tech feature of the park, and one Cisco has been talking about since it announced a vision for a stadium bearing its own name in 2006, won't be available on Day One at the new stadium. The company envisions letting the ordinary fans outside the luxury boxes order concessions wirelessly using their mobile devices. This wireless system would also let them view instant replays and chat with friends inside and outside the stadium, Cisco said Tuesday. But the new Yankee Stadium won't come with these features; it will only be built to support them in the future.

Plans for Cisco's own stadium, Cisco Field, which would house the Oakland A's in Fremont, California, a few miles from Cisco's headquarters, are still pending.
