This isn't going to help things much at all. Having consulted into these spaces in the past, and as you know as a you have going to a conference, wifi is just bad in public spaces. Bad bad bad.
I am reminded of Steve Job's snafu in 2010, as so well documented in this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoqh27E6OuU The technology needs to step up to the demand. Locations need to provide good wireless networks. That, or be prepared for 570 wireless base stations to show up. I like to think that we provide a wireless network that is adequate enough in coverage, and open enough in access that people don't think they need to bring their hotspots. I also think that if I had a high density space (like U of M's big house, or something) I'd be a little worried about this. (Hi, Dan!)
