Re: worldwide wireless internet?
[ QUOTE ]
I saw on the CNN-ticker at the bottom a few weeks ago that Philadelphia city-council is exploring the possibility of spending $150-mil or so to set up wireless internet access throughout the entire city. This would probably take awhile for them to set-up but would be kind of cool if they did. Might become the wave of the future for other cities. [/ QUOTE ] Philly is a cesspool of corruption, unions, and socialism. They have been damn near bankrupt for decades, there is no way they can afford this. Of course, we couldn't really afford two new sports stadiums either, but that didn't stop anyone... Go Eagles! |

If you just look past the corruption, socialism, and cesspool-ness, Philly is a great place to live. And thanks to this program, soon I'll be able to play poker from my front porch step.

Re: Using personal Laptop in internet cafes?
[ QUOTE ]
Hotspot is a verizon service where tens of thousands of places across the US (coffe shops, airports, etc) have wireless access. $29/month for the account. [/ QUOTE ] I belive it is a T-Mobile service not verizon wireless. Also, this site list many free "hotspots" that don't required you to sign up for T-Mobile hotspot service. http://intel.jiwire.com/?iid=ipp_mob...h+compare_ntbk SamJack |
