For those of you with multi SSIDs, are you implementing any sort of isolation?

I use several SSID here.
Desktops, laptops, netbooks (have their own)
Tablets and smartphones (have their own)
Wii and Network Media Players, Blue Ray with Internet (have their own)
The beacon payload is tiny - a few microseconds.Up to you - every SSID on a common channel/mac takes 12 percent of bandwidth.

I would think that 12 percent of capacity has to be incorrect by an order of magnitude or more.
The 802.11 beacon is not mandatory but is normally used and is essential for enterprise-type WiFi systems
