WEP VS WPA

I came across this article it is a interesting read, I feel all keys are breakable it's just a matter of time.

Steve Gibson weighs in on WPA-PSK keys by ZDNet's George Ou -- Brute forcing cryptographic keys is only interesting from a top secret or academic standpoint. Brute forcing a random 8 character alphanumeric WPA-PSK key for a home is a fool's errand because there are infinitely cheaper and easier ways to penetrate a home network by some other means.
