True, but the WPA and WPA2 algorithms are still fairly secure, and far more so than WEP ever was.
The WPA PSK I generally use on my networks is at least 24 bytes in length and uses mixed upper and lower alpha, numeric and symbols... so, I doubt it is vulnerable to cracking anytime soon.

FWIW, there have been some recent cracks against plain-vanilla WPA, folks should no longer consider it secure unless a strong password is used. (i.e. long, mixed characters.)

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
