Yeah, and what else Cannon forgot to say was that most of the "pay for service" wireless providers in DEN left as a result of the free wifi, and getting a signal on any network that doesn't force you to watch a 30 second flash commercial is futile, not to mention the lossyness of an over-subscribed free wifi network is a pain Only upside is that they [presumably inadvertently] permit pretty much any kind of tunneling you want.
