damn ... now if only bloomberg would give *us* access to lamp posts and city property ;-)
The world's biggest hotspot >From the beginning of 2004, the Los Angeles suburb of Cerritos will apparently become the biggest Wi-Fi hotspot in the U.S. -- possibly the world. The city does not have complete DSL or cable coverage, so Cerritos authorities gave Aiirnet Wirelss permission to use city property, including lamp posts, traffic lights, and rooftops to mount antennas and offer wireless broadband access to Cerritos' 50,000 residents, businesses, and city govenment. The full service will go live on January 1 and will cover all 8.6 square miles of outdoor Cerritos (initially, the wireless service will be available only to outdoor users). Pricing for the service will be similar to cable and DSL service. http://www.nwfusion.com/news/2003/1203cityofce.html - jon pgp key: http://www.jonbaer.net/jonbaer.asc fingerprint: F438 A47E C45E 8B27 F68C 1F9B 41DB DB8B 9A0C AF47 -- NYCwireless - http://www.nycwireless.net/ Un/Subscribe: http://lists.nycwireless.net/mailman/listinfo/nycwireless/ Archives: http://lists.nycwireless.net/pipermail/nycwireless/
