A bumper crop of links in this Mobile Wireless story. Lucky mag is trying out text-message shopping in its July and August issues. http://dailywireless.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=5603 More interesting to me is http://unthirsty.com, a simple google mashup that'll tell you what watering holes in your area have drinks, happy hours, specials--and wi-fi.

[nycwireless] The WiFi Wars?
Has there really been alot of backlash? Face it someone has to come up w/ a way to stick/print the password keys to the network at the bottom of the coffee cup then ;-) WiFi / RFID coffee cups or a true $10 latte. http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060710-7226.html -snip- Raise your hand: who here has ever booth-squatted for hours in a Panera, nursing that bottomless cup of coffee, using the restaurant's free WiFi connection the entire time? It's a common enough scenario that cafe and coffee shop owners, long used to offering free WiFi as a way to get customers in the door, are fighting back. -snip- I just don't see a war breaking out between freeloaders + cafes :-\ - Jon -- NYCwireless - http://www.nycwireless.net/ Un/Subscribe: http://lists.nycwireless.net/mailman/listinfo/nycwireless/ Archives: http://lists.nycwireless.net/pipermail/nycwireless/
