I was looking around for how much it costs to have smartcard/biometric
logon to my laptop.  I think the reader itself costs about $100 itself.

The one fundamental issue that I have with this "setup" is what happens if
you are not happy/have problems with a certain WiFi provider.  If you are
paying them directly (as it is right now), then you talk to the provider,
but if billing is handled through this consortium, I wonder how seriously
they will take complaints with their individual providers.
